Cupcake "Intrigue"

Description

I present to you spicy vegetable cake with beetroot. You don't like beets? I want to say that the one who felt the same way, even suspect could not, she is in the cupcake. Moreover, I tell you, if you know what it is, it's very unlikely you will "bite".

Cooking

Raw beets wash, peel, grate on a fine grater, squeeze out excess juice.

In the bowl mash the banana. Banana is better to take overripe.

In a bowl, combine the beets, banana, spices. I had prepared a mixture of spices. You can according to your taste add a total of 1.5 tsp of the spice blend.

Add to beet-banana mixture, sugar, Apple juice, sunflower oil Oleina. Since I planned to cover the cupcake with sweet caramel, then the amount of sugar reduced.

Mix well.

Add 1 tbsp of semolina, 1 tsp lemon zest 1 tbsp lemon juice.

Grind nuts not very finely. You can do it with the help of a rolling pin, prokatov them, or chop with a knife.

Add the sifted flour with the baking powder and soda. The batter should be the consistency like sour cream.

Add chopped nuts, mix well.

Spread in a greased form. I used 2 small shapes, size 13*6 and 16*7. You can bake in portion forms. Bake in a well preheated oven at a temperature of 190-200* 50 min, the time depends on your oven, it took me 1 hour. Test on dry kindling, it needs to come out of the cupcake dry. The first 30-40 minutes the oven do not open.

The finished cake you can just sprinkle with powdered sugar, and it is possible to cover with caramel or frosting. Caramel cook just. You will need sugar, honey, water.

In a saucepan pour 1 tbsp of water, add 2 tbsp sugar and boil for 2 -3 minutes.

Add honey, stir and remove from heat. It turns out stringy caramel and the cupcake quickly grasped.

The finished cake remove from oven, give it 5 minutes "recover", to get out of shape, cool on wire rack. When baking the cake rose, but when cooled a little blown away. Then act on your own. Pour the caramel, sprinkle with powdered sugar or covered with icing
