Upside Down Pumpkin Cake
Category: Desserts - Other
Suitable for a: vegan diet
Ingredients:
------------------------------------------------------
1 29 oz can pumpkin
2 t cinnamon
1/2 t cloves
salt to taste
1 3/4 cups white sugar
3/4 cup soft silken tofu, blended smooth
1 1/2 cups Silk Nog (or other thick milk alternative)
1 18.25 oz package yellow cake mix (I used Duncan Hines Butter Recipe Golden, it appears to be vegan)
1 cup chopped pecans
1 cup vegan margarine, melted
Instructions:
------------------------------------------------------
1 Preheat over to 350 degrees
2 In a mixing bowl, blend pumpkin, cinnamon, cloves, salt, sugar, tofu and nog or milk. Pour mixture into a 9x13 inch baking dish. Sprinkle dry cake mix and nuts over the batter. Pour melted margarine over the cake.
3 Bake in the preheated oven for 60 minutes and let cool. The cake will be liquidy at first, but will solidify as it cools.

This is really easy and really good! I just tried veganizing the recipe and I thought it worked out fine.
For the original version, you could use 3 eggs instead of tofu and a 12 oz can of evaporated milk for the nog. And the original recipe specifies a cake mix with pudding, but I don't see that it made a difference.
