Ingredients

  • 1.5 cups All purpose flour
  • ½ cup Caster sugar
  • cup Pumpkin puree
  • ¼ cup Milk
  • cup Vegetable oil
  • cup Chopped dried cranberries
  • 2 Eggs
  • ½ tsp Ground cinnamon
  • ¼ tsp Salt
  • ½ tsp Baking soda
  • 1 tsp Baking powder

For the Frosting

  • 1/3 cup cream cheese
  • 1/4 cup whipping cream
  • 2 tablespoons powdered sugar

Instructions

  • Crack the eggs in a bowl and add sugar. Whisk this until the mixture becomes frothy. Add the vegetable oil and give it another whisk. 
  • Add in the milk and pumpkin puree and whisk until everything is evenly combined. 
  • Sieve all the dry ingredients into the bowl and using a spatula, fold all the dry ingredients into the wet until a uniform batter forms.
  • Add the chopped cranberries and fold them evenly into the batter. Then, pour this batter into a greased and lined pan.
  • Bake it in a preheated oven at 350°F for about 45-55 minutes until a skewer inserted in the middle comes out clean. Then, let it cool completely.

Frosting

  • While the cake is baking, take the frosting ingredients and place them in a medium bowl. Whisk for about 5 minutes or until stiff peaks form.
  • Once the cake has cooled spread the frosting on the cake and enjoy!
