Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.

This same recipe has been in my family forever. I make it exactly as written. It's the most delicious and moist coffee cake you'll ever have.

I've made this three times now and it has always come out well. A very moist cake and everyone loves it. Tried three different beers and would suggest a bitter or draught, very sweet cake so sweet beers not required. Highly recomended.
