CARDAMOM SPICE CAKE-A DELIGHTFUL SWEET!



Cardamom Spice Cake-A delightful sweet! image

Cardamom is usually found in Indian cooking, it's a pungent and very unique taste that we're used to eating in savoury dishes. Sometimes flavours are delightfully surprising when you use them in different ways. My first sweet application of cardamom was in a quaint Indian cafe in London, the cardamom tea stood out on the menu for me and I just had to try it. The tea had bitter and smoky undertones, but overall, I tasted the aromatic cardamom paired with cinnamon that were only enhanced by the creamy texture of the tea. I knew right then that I had to dig in and invent something sweet for our keto kitchen. Cardamom spice cake is the result of the spark that was lit in me that day. I thought this spice blend would take many attempts and much practice to make perfect, but the whole family thought this spice cake was absolutely delicious right from the start.

Time 1h5m

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 cups almond flour
1/4 cup coconut flour
1 cup swerve
1 tbsp baking soda
1 tsp cream of tartar
2 1/4 tsp ground cardamom
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp ginger
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 cup 35% whipping cream
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup cream cheese
1 tsp vanilla extract
4 large eggs
1 drop orange food grade essential oil (we used Lorann's)
1 tsp grated lemon zest

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325°. Grease a tube/Bundt pan with butter. Set aside. Combine dry ingredients and sift together. Set aside In another bowl, (I use the stand mixer) combine butter, cream cheese and Swerve. Cream together. Alternate between adding dry mixture, vanilla and eggs while you mix in between each addition. Add remaining ingredients and mix for 5 minutes on high. Spoon batter into pan, use your spatula to create a higher amount of batter in the centre of the pan. The almond flour doesn't rise the same way, so we move the batter to try to create the look of the loafs rise in the centre. Bake at 325° for 55 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pan 5 minutes then remove from pan.

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h20m

Yield 10-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

3 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons ground cardamom
1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon, ground
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon kosher salt
4 large eggs, room temperature
2 cups granulated sugar
1 cup vegetable oil
1/3 cup buttermilk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 lbs carrots, grated coarsely (about 6 cups)
1 cup walnuts, toasted and finely chopped
24 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
1 cup powdered sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 350°F and arrange the rack in the middle.
  • Coat two 8-inch cake pans with butter and flour, and tap out any excess flour. Set aside.
  • Combine flour, baking powder, cardamom, cinnamon, baking soda, ginger, and salt in a large bowl, and whisk to aerate and break up any lumps. Set aside.
  • Combine eggs, sugar, oil, buttermilk, and vanilla in a large bowl, and whisk until eggs are broken up and mixture is thoroughly combined. Using a rubber spatula, fold in flour mixture until just combined. Fold in carrots and walnuts until evenly mixed.
  • Divide batter evenly between the prepared pans. Bake until a cake tester inserted in the center comes out clean, about 50 to 60 minutes.
  • Remove cakes from the oven and transfer to a wire rack to cool, about 15 minutes. Run a knife around the perimeter of each, and turn cakes out onto the rack to cool completely.
  • For the Frosting:.
  • Combine all ingredients in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, and beat at low speed until sugar is incorporated.
  • Increase speed to medium high and beat until frosting is light and whipped, about 3 to 4 minutes.
  • For the Assembly:.
  • To frost, place a cake layer on an 8-inch cardboard round, a tart-pan bottom, or a cake plate. Evenly spread about 1/3 of the frosting over the top of the layer. Stack the second layer, and evenly spread another 1/3 of the frosting over the top and sides of the whole cake. (Don't worry about looks at this point-this is just a crumb layer, and it will be covered up later.)
  • Place in the refrigerator until frosting is set up and slightly hard, about 15 minutes.
  • Remove from the refrigerator and spread remaining frosting over the top and sides of the cake, ensuring it's as even as possible. Serve.
