Pineapple--Pumpkin--Carrot Bars
I have tried a LOT of snack cake recipes in the by 40+ years, but this i is, BY FAR, the best yet. It is super moist too tender from the crushed pineapple, pumpkin too grated carrots too it would move PERFECT for whatever potluck or party; your guests of all ages volition dear it. It is i of those RARE recipes that is super easy AND it gets RAVE reviews.
No postulate for an electrical mixer, this quick too slowly care for goes together inward a flash amongst a large bowl too a spoon.
2 cups all role flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
4 eggs
1 2/3 cups white sugar
2/3 loving cup vegetable oil
1 (15 ounce) tin pumpkin puree
2 cups shredded carrots (see banking venture annotation below)
1 loving cup crushed pineapple (see banking venture annotation below)
Preheat oven to 350°F too grease too flour a 10x15 baking pan (see banking venture annotation below).
Mix the flour, salt, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon too pumpkin pie spice inward a bowl too laid it aside.
In a large bowl, whisk the eggs till smooth, therefore add together the sugar, stone oil too pumpkin, whisking it until its real good mixed, therefore stir inward the drained crushed pineapple too grated carrots. Stir till good combined.
Stir inward the flour mixture too gently crimp until its all good mixed.
Pour into prepared 10 x 15 pan too bake at 350°F for 25-30 minutes (my electrical oven took xxx minutes).
Remove from oestrus too cool earlier you lot frost.
CREAM CHEESE FROSTING
(1) 8 ounce pkg. cream cheese (room temperature)
6 tablespoons butter (room temperature)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 1/2 cups powdered sugar
Beat the cream cheese too butter till smooth, add together extract too powdered saccharide too shell until correct consistency.
NOTES:
This cake volition plow out amend if you lot hand grate the carrots amongst a box grater rather than grating them amongst your nutrient processor. The nutrient processor leaves real long strings of carrot, which don't practise therefore good inward a cake/bar. The box grater volition give you lot a smaller/shorter grate.
Make certain the crushed pineapple is squeezed dry out of all of it's extra water. I flora that a xx ounce tin of crushed pineapple.....squeezed dry out amongst my hands, gives me 1 loving cup of ready to utilisation crushed pineapple which is simply correct for this recipe.
Not everyone has the 10 x xv baking pan that is called for inward this recipe. You tin bake this cake inward a nine x xiii pan if you lot bake it a footling longer (about 10-15 minutes longer... simply examination it amongst a toothpick to brand certain its baked all the agency through). The nine x xiii pan volition give you lot a thicker bar (almost similar a cake) but it tastes the same. If you lot determine to utilisation the 9x13 pan, the bars volition move to a greater extent than similar a cake
Personally, I similar to trace of piece of job my baking pans amongst parchment newspaper too therefore spray the parchment newspaper amongst cooking spray. When the cake/bars are completely cool, you lot tin simply elevator the whole matter out of the pan too it makes it much easier to cutting upwards neatly.
