Pumpkin Streusal Bundt Cake

Hi everyone,

My weekend baking project is to bake this bundt cake. I just wondered if anyone has tried this recipe. I got it from:

Open Original Shared Link

It looks so delicious, and I just got a new bundt pan for a birthday present. Can't wait to try it. Will probably use a flour mix consisting of white rice flour, sorghum, and buckwheat flours because those are the kinds I like. Might try mixing some sweet rice flour in it, too, or maybe not. Have never used sweet rice flour and someone said it changes the consistency.

Would love to hear if anyone has tried this and which flours you used. I'm just in a pumpkiney mood. It finally turned cool here in Indy. Yeh!

YUMMMMM!! Have not made it, but if I did (and I might!) I would use Pamela's pancake/baking mix and decrease the butter to 1 stick or omit the butter and use 1/2 cup light olive oil instead (more moist cake). I'll let you know if I try it this weekend!

Sounds great! Also found some other butter substitute ideas on this thread here in this forum:

Yeah, I try to go as whole and natural as I can-NO margerine or the like. I use virgin coconut oil, EVOO for no heat cooking, light olive oil for baking and sauteeing as well as butter. It's the only dairy product I do. I like butter for cookies but oil for cakes!

So, how would that affect the texture if you substituted 1/2 cup light olive oil for 2 sticks of butter?

When I use Pamela's, I've found that since the mix contains almond flour, it acts as a fat, so I'm able to decrease the fat in a recipe by 1/2. I've found that using oil in cakes and muffins as opposed to butter yields a lighter, more moist product. I use the light olive oil because it can be heated to higher temps withour going rancid so it doesn't change the flavor of the cake. I won't use canola, corn, safflower, etc... because they're so highly processed and carcinogenic. (I'm a bit of a granola :P )

Thanks for the information. Note to self: go to the grocery AGAIN and purchase LIGHT olive oil and SMART BALANCE :)

Can you do dairy? If so, I'd stay away from the Smart Balance too. My 2cents :)

Also, I bake a ton, so for me it's cheaper to buy the olive oil from Costco!

Thanks! I don't do much dairy. Just put it into the oven using butter b/c wanted to get it done before starting supper. Also, made some minor changes such as used pumpkin pie spice instead of allspice. I'll let you know how it turned out.

Can't wait!

I just looked at the recipe again to make a list of ingredients and realized that it says she got the recipe from the Libby's website--I have made this before, I thought the directions looked familiar! It was good :)

freeatlast Collaborator

We enjoyed it very much last night. The consistency is EXCELLENT! Next time, I will probably use some coconut flour or almond flour, though. Let me know how yours turns out.

I imagine the flavor will improve after freezing in individual pieces. Usually does. That has been my experience, anyway.

celiac-mommy Collaborator

I agree with the freezing! I have a small cake business on the side and I freeze ALL my cakes for at least 2 days before decorating. The difference is impressive! I'm going to make the cake today, I'll totally let you know!

      In the U.S., most regular wheat breads are required to be enriched with certain B-vitamins and iron, but gluten-free breads are not required to be. Since many gluten-free products are not enriched, we usually encourage people with celiac disease to consider a multivitamin.  In the early 1900s, refined white flour replaced whole grains, and people began developing serious vitamin-deficiency diseases: Beriberi → caused by a lack of thiamin (vitamin B1) Pellagra → caused by a lack of niacin (vitamin B3) Anemia → linked to low iron and lack of folate By the 1930s–40s, these problems were common in the U.S., especially in poorer regions. Public-health officials responded by requiring wheat flour and the breads made from it to be “enriched” with thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, and iron. Folic acid was added later (1998) to prevent neural-tube birth defects. Why gluten-free bread isn’t required to be enriched? The U.S. enrichment standards were written specifically for wheat flour. Gluten-free breads use rice, tapioca, corn, sorghum, etc.—so they fall outside that rule—but they probably should be for the same reason wheat products are.

      Keep in mind that there are drawbacks to a formal diagnosis, for example more expensive life and private health insurance, as well as possibly needing to disclose it on job applications. Normally I am in favor of the formal diagnosis process, but if you've already figured out that you can't tolerate gluten and will likely stay gluten-free anyway, I wanted to at least mention the possible negative sides of having a formal diagnosis. While I understand wanting a formal diagnosis, it sounds like she will likely remain gluten-free either way, even if she should test negative for celiac disease (Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If her symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet, it would likely signal NCGS).

      Thank you all so much for your advice and thoughts. We ended up having another scope and more bloodwork last week. All serological markers continue to increase, and the doc who did the scope said there villous atrophy visible on the scope — but we just got the biopsy pathology report back, and all it says is, “Duodenal mucosa with patchy increased intraepithelial lymphocytes, preserved villous architecture, and patchy foveolar metaplasia,” which we are told is still inconclusive…  We will have her go gluten free again anyway, but how soon would you all test again, if at all? How valuable is an official dx in a situation like this?

      Thanks for this Russ, and good to see that it is fortified. I spend too much time looking for M&S gluten-free Iced Spiced Buns to have ever noticed this! That's interesting, Scott.  Have manufacturers ever said why that should be the case?
