Pumpkin poppy seed cake
Description
The recipe won't take much time. I love baked goods that don't require a lot of time or numerous ingredients, so this simple pumpkin pie is a real find for me. As soon as pumpkins appear on store shelves at the beginning of autumn, I stock up on these wonderful orange vegetables of unusual shape and start experimenting. Serve with tea or coffee.
