Pumpkin Streusal Bundt Cake

Hi everyone,

My weekend baking project is to bake this bundt cake. I just wondered if anyone has tried this recipe. I got it from:

Open Original Shared Link

It looks so delicious, and I just got a new bundt pan for a birthday present. Can't wait to try it. Will probably use a flour mix consisting of white rice flour, sorghum, and buckwheat flours because those are the kinds I like. Might try mixing some sweet rice flour in it, too, or maybe not. Have never used sweet rice flour and someone said it changes the consistency.

Would love to hear if anyone has tried this and which flours you used. I'm just in a pumpkiney mood. It finally turned cool here in Indy. Yeh!

YUMMMMM!! Have not made it, but if I did (and I might!) I would use Pamela's pancake/baking mix and decrease the butter to 1 stick or omit the butter and use 1/2 cup light olive oil instead (more moist cake). I'll let you know if I try it this weekend!

Sounds great! Also found some other butter substitute ideas on this thread here in this forum:

Yeah, I try to go as whole and natural as I can-NO margerine or the like. I use virgin coconut oil, EVOO for no heat cooking, light olive oil for baking and sauteeing as well as butter. It's the only dairy product I do. I like butter for cookies but oil for cakes!

So, how would that affect the texture if you substituted 1/2 cup light olive oil for 2 sticks of butter?

When I use Pamela's, I've found that since the mix contains almond flour, it acts as a fat, so I'm able to decrease the fat in a recipe by 1/2. I've found that using oil in cakes and muffins as opposed to butter yields a lighter, more moist product. I use the light olive oil because it can be heated to higher temps withour going rancid so it doesn't change the flavor of the cake. I won't use canola, corn, safflower, etc... because they're so highly processed and carcinogenic. (I'm a bit of a granola :P )

Thanks for the information. Note to self: go to the grocery AGAIN and purchase LIGHT olive oil and SMART BALANCE :)

Can you do dairy? If so, I'd stay away from the Smart Balance too. My 2cents :)

Also, I bake a ton, so for me it's cheaper to buy the olive oil from Costco!

Thanks! I don't do much dairy. Just put it into the oven using butter b/c wanted to get it done before starting supper. Also, made some minor changes such as used pumpkin pie spice instead of allspice. I'll let you know how it turned out.

Can't wait!

I just looked at the recipe again to make a list of ingredients and realized that it says she got the recipe from the Libby's website--I have made this before, I thought the directions looked familiar! It was good :)

freeatlast Collaborator

We enjoyed it very much last night. The consistency is EXCELLENT! Next time, I will probably use some coconut flour or almond flour, though. Let me know how yours turns out.

I imagine the flavor will improve after freezing in individual pieces. Usually does. That has been my experience, anyway.

celiac-mommy Collaborator

I agree with the freezing! I have a small cake business on the side and I freeze ALL my cakes for at least 2 days before decorating. The difference is impressive! I'm going to make the cake today, I'll totally let you know!

      Thanks for your reply! I’m really not too sure, the doctor just took a few tubes of blood & that’s all I know 🥹

      Possibly, but there used to be a movement within the celiac disease community to just tell restaurants that you have a deadly wheat/gluten allergy to, hopefully anyway, ensure that your meal is actually gluten-free. I don't recommend this approach at all, and if I ran a restaurant where there was ANY risk of cross-contamination, I'm afraid that I would decline to server someone who made this claim. No restaurant owner wants anyone dying or going to the emergency room at their business.

      You mention that you are waiting on your test results--did they do a celiac blood panel? If so, were you eating lots of gluten in the 6-8 weeks leading up to the test? This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests for celiac disease might be false-negative, and other types of tests need to be done to make an accurate diagnosis. The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate.

      According to their website they are gluten-free: https://www.somersby.com/en/faq/

      If you suspect celiac disease a blood panel for it would be the best option. This article might be helpful.
