BUNDT DE FALSO CHOCOLATE - FALSE CHOCOLATE BUNDT CAKE #BUNDT BAKERS




(scroll down for the English version)

Hola a todos, 

Puntual a mi cita con Bund Bakers, este mes traigo un Bundt original y riquísimo. Como sabéis #Bundtbakers está abierto a que os apuntéis cuando queráis. Sólo hay que mandar un email con la URL de vuestro blog a a foodlustpeoplelove@gmail.com  También podéis visitar su página y allí lo explican todo pero os comento brevemente que #Bundtbakers es un grupo de bloggers a los que les apasionan los bundts y que se reúnen una vez al mes para hacer una receta con un ingrediente, elegido por un anfitrión que normalmente es voluntario. Pinchad en el logo para ir a su página.

Este mes la anfitriona es Tanya y el ingrediente es el chocolate en cualquiera de sus colores y formas.

Gracias Tanya por ser la anfitriona y por es ingrediente que has escogido, tan popular, tan versatil y tan socorrido.

Dicho esto resulta que este pastel en realiad no lleva chocolate, voy a sustituirlo por harina de algarroba. La harina de algarroba se encuentra en comercios de productos saludables normalmente de cultivo ecológico. Os animo a hacerlo y os aseguro que os encantará. Tiene un sabor muy original y una textura estupenda gracias al coco rallado y  las claras montadas a punto de nieve.

Recordad que aunque yo lo he hecho en un Bundt esta receta sirve también para molde de 20cm

INGREDIENTES

mantequilla 100gr
azúcar de caña 125gr
huevos 3 separando claras y yemas
leche 100ml
almendra rallada 75gr
coco rallado 75gr
harina 125gr
harina de algarroba 50gr
levadura tipo Royal 15gr


Precalentamos el horno a 175ºC y engrasamos el molde de Bundt con mantequilla o con spray de engrasar. 
-Con batidora de barillas batir la mantequilla para que aumente de volumen, añadir las yemas y el zúcar y batir hasta que esté todo incorporado. No sobrebatir.

-Añadir la leche a temperatura ambiente. Integrar. Añadir el coco y la almendra molida.

-En un bol aparte mezclar las harinas y la levadura. Reservar.

-En otro bol montar las claras a punto de nieve blando. Reservar.

Llegados a este punto hay que juntarlo todo; la mezcla de harinas se añade a la mezcla de yemas y mantequilla batiendo a velocidad baja. No os preocupéis del aspecto de engrudo que adquiere la masa, es normal.

A la mezcla anterior añadimos a mano las claras montadas con movimientos envolventes. La mezcla no debe perder aire y en cuanto esté todo integrado dejamos de batir.

Ponemos la mezcla en el molde y lo metemos en el horno unos 25min. Cuidado con hornearlo demasiado o con quemarlo, es una mezcla muy oscura y además lleva almendras, así que se quema con facilidad. En caso de duda, tapar con papel de plata y vigilar el horneado. Yo lo tapé cuando hacía 20min que estaba en el horno y tardó otros 15min en acabar de hornearse. 

Bueno, no me cansaré de recomendar que lo hagáis, de verdad que vale la pena.

Thank you Tanya for hosting and for choosing this versatile and popular ingredient.   
Having said that I must admit my Bundt does not include chocolate at all, in fact I have substituted it with carob bean powder. The result is a moist, dark Bundt with a very distinctive taste. You can be certain this cake is so good you wont miss the chocolate taste or color. 

There we go!

 

INGREDIENTS
butter 100gr
muscovado sugar 125gr
eggs 3 separated
milk 100ml
ground almonds 75gr
ground coconut 75gr
flour 125gr
carob powder 50gr
baking powder 15gr


Preheat the oven 170ºC and grease the Bundt pan lightly.

-Beat the butter until fluffy. Add the yolks and sugar and mix until all the ingredients are integrated. Do not over-mix.

-In another bowl beat the egg whites until soft pics begin to form. Reserve.

-Mix the flours and baking powder together and add to the butter mixture beating slowly. 

-Finally add the egg whites and mix by hand with evolving movements. Do not be put off by the looks of the mixture. It might look like unrefined petrol but it is normal.

Put the mixture in the oven and bake for 25min. Be careful not to burn it. I covered it with foil after 20 min and it took another 15 min to finish baking. 






Please, try this recipe and let me know. I can assure you you will love the special taste and the moist texture!!!

  14. How interesting, I've never tried carob before and I'm not sure exactly what it is. Your bundt looks great, you would never know that it doesn't contain any chocolate. Laura@ Baking in Pyjamas

  15. I was very curious about what you meant by false chocolate. I've heard of carob but never tried it. I'm told that it tastes very similar and doesn't have the same stimulant effects!
