Coffee Cake - Pumpkin Custard Taken from my cast-iron skillet 'Fruit Cobbler' coffee-cake topped recipe. Bake at convection 350* for 20 minutes.
Coffee cake topping:
The night before (or 8-10 hours or so before you want it) mix up and soak on the counter: 7 1/2 oz soft white wheat flour 1/2 stick (1/4 c) melted unsalted butter (OR coconut oil for fresher fruit taste) 6 oz milk 2 oz whole milk yogurt In the morning mix together and stir-in: 1 egg 1/2 c (4 oz) sugar Mix together and gently but thoroughly stir-in: 1 t baking powder 1/2 t baking soda 1/2 t salt Working quickly but gently, scrape out the batter and pour it onto the set pumpkin custard in the cast-iron skillet. -1 can pumpkin! Melt 1/4 c (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, stir in 1 can pumpkin, 3 oz turbinado sugar, 2 oz maple syrup, 1 t salt, 1/2 t cinnamon, 1/4 t nutmeg, about 2 t grated fresh ginger. Bring this to a simmer and stir until it reduces by about a third, turns dark and shiny. (You could prep this in advance!) Remove from heat. Mix together and stir in 1 c whole milk, 3 eggs, 1 T vanilla. Bake this about 10 minutes to let it set up. Then scoop the batter on top and sprinkle walnuts generously across the top.
