Recipe: Butter, flour and me

light and moist..

Ingredients: (  6 inch cake tin)-- I used a small loaf tin
Egg yolks  ( you need 3 )
Pumpkin mash  60g
Corn oil  50g
Cake flour  65g (sifted)
Cornmeal / Polenta / Maize flour  5g (sifted)
Egg whites  ( you need 3)
Castor sugar  65g












Method
1.   In a large bowl, mix egg yolks and pumpkin mash well.  Add in oil and mix.  Gradually add in  cake flour and cornmeal and mix well.  Set aside.

2.  In another clean bowl, beat whites ( I added one tsp lemon juice) in  a few batches until it reaches stiff peak.

3.  Take a small portion of beaten whites to add in the yellow batter, to lighten the texture.

4.  Pour all yellow batter into the white batter.  Fold gently.

6.  Bake in pre-heated oven 35 -40 minutes. Invert the cake tin immediately, serve after it is completely cooled.
