Pumpkin Cocoa Bundt Cake

What´s more fall than pumpkin. I finally planted a Hokkaido pumpkin this year (and it grew) and I couldn´t waited to make something from it. My excitement fell a bit when I realized that the pumpkin needed to be washed, baked, peeled and mixed with a bit of water, only then I could use puree 😀 Anyway, after all this, I finally had enough of pumpkin puree, I used majority of it and the rest went to a freezer, maybe for some next pumpkin cake. I wanted something relatively traditional, maybe with a hint of chocolate, for my first pumpkin recipe, so Pumpkin Cocoa Bundt Cake was born. Traditionally untraditional version of a marble cake will enchant you not only with its beautiful (and natural) color, but also with its taste, even pumpkin haters will eat a piece or two (I´m talking from my own experience :D). Traditional pumpkin pie spice is, of course, a must have as well. The bundt cake is slightly denser, so don´t be surprised it bakes a bit longer than usual. Bake this bundt cake in a bigger baking pan since there really is a lot of batter. Anyway, it tastes amazing, a subtle pumpkin flavor is complimented with a bitter cocoa.

    Vyzerá pekne, určite aj chutí dobre. Pre budúce recepty z tekvice hokaido mám radu – netreba ju šúpať (je to v podstate jediná tekvica, ak nerátam cukiny – ktorú naozaj netreba šúpať a naopak, krásna oranžová vyzretá šupa dá tomu pyré peknú farbu. Hokaido sa uvarí v polievke aj v talianskom “risotte” úplne v pohode so šupkou, takže aj pyré bude super.

      Mrzí ma, že bábovka nechutila – pre niekoho to môže byť naozaj príliš veľa masla, keďže každý je zvyknutý na iné chute
