Pumpkin cake

Japanese pumpkin is sweeter than western squash.  French "Potiron" is similar but Japanese one is more sweeter. The best season for this vegetable is summer and they are good to eat as tempra.  I bake this cake with pure of pumpkin, some maple syrup, sugar, butter and some flour.

カボチャを蒸してピュレにして作るパウンドケーキ。私はカボチャとメープルシロップの風味がとても合うと思っており、大さじ３杯くらい入れる。
