Notes
- How Long Will My Pumpkin Angel Food Cake Last?
- How Long Will My Pumpkin Angel Food Cake Last?
- When stored correctly, Pumpkin Angel Food Cake will stay fresh for a day or two at room temperature. It will last about a week in the fridge, and four to six months in the freezer.
- Why Should I Avoid Mixing My Angel Food Cake Batter In A Plastic Bowl?
- Why Should I Avoid Mixing My Angel Food Cake Batter In A Plastic Bowl?
- Plastic tends to hold onto leftover fats and oils, and you don’t want to add any residual fat to the cake batter since it could ruin the consistency.
- Should I Grease The Bundt Pan Before Pouring In The Batter?
- Should I Grease The Bundt Pan Before Pouring In The Batter?
- You should never grease the pan when baking angel food cake since you don’t want to add fats or oils to the batter.
- Can I Warm Up This Pumpkin Angel Food Cake Before Serving It?
- Can I Warm Up This Pumpkin Angel Food Cake Before Serving It?
- I don’t recommend heating the entire cake before serving because you don’t want to overbake or dry it out. However, you can toast up a slice of the cake in a toaster or quickly under the broiler. It would taste heavenly with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
- Be careful not to overmix the batter when combining the cake batter with the pumpkin mixture. Fold the two together instead of whipping or stirring, which could knock the air out of the batter and leave you with a dense, unrisen cake.
- Never grease your bundt pan before baking angel food cake— it’ll add fat to the batter and mess with the consistency of the cake.
- This is a perfect bake-ahead recipe. Whip up one (or a few) of these cakes, let it cool, wrap it well, and then freeze it. Then, if you ever need dessert in a pinch, just defrost the cake and serve!
- A typical angel food cake is prone to drying out quickly due to the lack of butter or oil in the batter. Fortunately for us, this recipe has the added benefit of extra moisture from the canned pumpkin. This means as long as you properly store the cake to prevent airflow, it’ll stay fresh for longer. Wrap the cake well in a couple of layers of cling film and then cover the cling film with aluminum foil for the best results.
