HERE’S WHAT YOU NEED to make Crock pot honey pumpkin cake:
FOR THE CAKE:
- 3 Cups of Flour
- 1 teaspoon of Pumpkin pie spice
- Pinch of salt
- 1 cup of Sugar
- 1 1/2 Tablespoons of Baking Powder
- 3/4 cups of Heavy Cream – or half n half
- 2 Eggs
- 1 Teaspoon of Vanilla
- 1 Teaspoon of Maple flavoring
- 1 Stick of Butter – softened
- 1 cup of Brown Sugar
- 1 Tablespoon of Cinnamon
- 1/2 cup of Pumpkin (canned)
- 2 Tablespoons of Maple Syrup (Pancake syrup)
FOR THE GLAZE:
- 2 1/2 cups of Powdered Sugar
- 1 teaspoon of Vanilla
- 2 1/2 Tablespoons of Honey
- 2 1/2 Tablespoons of Heavy cream
HERE’S WHAT YOU DO:
In the mixing bowl of a stand mixer, add sugar, and butter, and whisk together until creamy. Add eggs, Heavy cream, Vanilla, Maple flavoring, Pumpkin, Brown sugar, and Maple syrup. Mix all ingredients until well blended. In a separate bowl, add the flour, baking powder, Pumpkin pie spice, salt, and Cinnamon. Stir well, and add to mixing bowl, blending between additions, until all ingredients are well mixed. Scrape down the sides of the mixing bowl, and blend.
Butter the bottom and halfway up the sides of the Crock Pot liner and turn on to high heat. Pour the Cake batter into the Crock Pot, and place lid on Crock pot. Let cook on high for 45 minutes to 1 hour. Turn setting to low heat, and leave in Crock pot for about an hour, or until center is set, and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. When cake is done, turn off Crock Pot, and make the glaze.
GLAZE: Blend the Powdered sugar, honey, and heavy cream together in the mixing bowl of a stand mixer, until smooth. Add the Vanilla, and Maple syrup, and blend until creamy. When cake is cool, pour glaze over cooled cake in the crock pot. Serve, and enjoy!
Makes 10 to 12 servings.
NOTE: I used Goodman’s Maple Flavoring. You can find it at most grocery stores, and Wal Mart. Since Crock pot’s cook at different temperatures, times may vary. I baked this in a Rival Crock Pot. Just make sure your cake is baked in the center before turning off the heat.
