Friday Favourites

I'm making this a tradition. Friday Favs - every Friday.

To tell the truth I hope to be motivated and organized enough to blog twice a week. And with Friday Favs I'm going to be here at least once a week. 

Hope you like it!

Pumpkin Cake

I have never eaten pumpkin before last Saturday. I bought a 4,5 kilo pumpkin and made puree. I'm not crazy eco person or anything. You just won't find canned pumpkin in Poland. 

So, yeah... I carved, cut and roasted the orange flesh. I mashed it, cooked it some more and pureed it. I love this orangey yellow it gets. Used some of the puree for the pumpkin cake and froze the rest.

My husband doesn't get my fascination with  pumpkin, but he liked the cake. He likes cake. I married a prefect guy :)

Pumpkin Pie Spice

 Come in handy when baking with pumpkin or adding this special flavour to pies, cakes or coffee.

I couldn't find any in stores so decided to make some myself. Found some good recipes via Pinterest.
