Pumpkin chiffon cake

Overview

Autumn is golden and is the season of harvest. Among the seasonal ingredients in autumn, pumpkin is a very familiar ingredient. Today I will teach you how to add this seasonal vegetable - pumpkin when making cakes. Pumpkin is rich in vitamins, dietary fiber and other nutrients and has good effects and functions. Especially in autumn when the climate is dry, many friends will have varying degrees of symptoms such as chapped lips, nasal bleeding, and dry skin. Eating some pumpkin in moderation is good for the body. The carotene contained in pumpkin can be absorbed by the human body and converted into vitamin A. In addition, pumpkin is also rich in vitamin E, which can maintain the normal health of children's growth and development, enhance the body's immunity, and is of great benefit in improving the symptoms of autumn dryness. Because pumpkin puree is added to this cake, the baked color is very beautiful and golden. The child was immediately attracted by the color and asked me what kind of cake it was. This cake didn't taste like pumpkin at all. The child ate three pieces at once. You can imagine how delicious this cake was.
