Some days ago Yashendu and Ramona baked a really delicious pumpkin pie and since then I am asking Ramona daily to write down that recipe so that more people can enjoy this great dessert. Of course it is a recipe for cake without eggs. As always in baking, some ingredients were actually used a bit more and others a bit less but here are the approximate values and you can also add or reduce ingredients like sugar or raisins according to taste.
An easy way to make Ayurvedic Pumpkin Pie Recipe
Preparation time: 20 minutes
Cooking time: 20 minutes
Total Time: 50 minutes
2 ½ kg Ripe Sweet Pumpkin
750 g Wheat flour
150 g Sugar powder
100 g Ghee or a little bit more butter
3 tsp Baking power
100 ml Water
50 g Raisins
2 tsp Cinnamon
½ tsp Mace
½ tsp. Nutmeg
0.5 g Saffron
10 Small Cardamom seeds powdered
Peel the pumpkin and cut it into pieces before you steam it in a sieve over boiling water until it is fully soft to easily mash it. And of course that is the next thing that you need to do: mash it until there are no pieces anymore.
Now mix the baking powder and the spices into the flour. The ghee or the butter have to be warmed until they are liquid. If you would like to intensify the taste of saffron in your cake you can already add the saffron into the ghee at this stage.
When the ghee is liquid and the saffron already left some colour into it, you can mix the sugar powder into the ghee. To this you add the water and stir it.
In the next step you add this mix to the flour. When this is nicely mixed you can also add the pumpkin mash and in the end mix the raisins into the dough.
We have filled the dough into many small greased bowls and put them into our gas oven for about half an hour. So just take a try with your oven and test it after some time with the tip of a knife whether it is done or not. And when it is done, enjoy it, if possible still while it is warm, then it is best!

Discipline is very important in our nutrition. Eat when you are hungry. Hunger can be in the eyes and in the mind, too, not only in your belly. Learn to distinguish that.
SourceIf you have practice of meditation, you are able to focus and decide what you want to think of. Through meditation and focus you can not only close the door of your office but also the door of your mind to work related topics in order to truly relax.
SourceIf your pain is chronic and incurable, accept it and accept it with love.
SourceIt is not necessary to believe in the truth for it to be real. Fire for example will burn, if you believe it or not.
SourceKarma Yoga is when you do something and then forget it. Whatever you do, just offer it to god and don't keep any expectation of getting something in return. That is Karma Yoga.
SourceA mistake is something that you learn from. Everybody makes mistakes and it doesn’t make sense to walk through life with this guilt until you leave the earth. Do your best to say sorry, to repair what is broken or to change the way if you made a wrong decision. However don’t carry it around after that otherwise you will be a prisoner of this guilt. Be free.
SourceThere are no Siddhis or supernatural powers. I challenge anybody to show me those powers and their effect, good or bad. Can you tell me the lottery numbers or can you kill me only by the force of your mind? Try it.
SourceDon’t let a religion take away your freedom or tell you what to do. Take your own responsibility, be tolerant with others, love those around you and be free.
SourceAll is a game of necessity in this world. If you feel a person or place doesn’t need you, leave it immediately and reach somewhere where you are needed. Never leave those who need you. If you want to be happy and respected, become necessary and useful.
SourceReligious preaching is a performing art, not a divine act.
SourceIn the Indian society, young people are married like on a deer market and many agree themselves that this is how it should be.
SourceDon’t bring business talk everywhere. Stop it, at the latest when you go into the bedroom. No business is allowed there anymore, just love and the relationship of you and your partner.
SourceI am not a Guru, Master or a Teacher. Just trying to be a good student in the school of life.
SourceReligion is imagination and interpretation but also wants to control. That is why people start turning away from religions. They are told which way to go but they want freedom! Let people believe what they wish to believe. Always choose freedom and love.
SourceGod doesn’t want to own a house or a temple, he is just there, living in our heart. It is the greed of people who want to own land – and if they can possess it on the name of God, they do.
SourceReligion makes women inauspicious and depicts them as usable objects, as second-grade citizens who belong to men and should obey.
SourceDon’t be shy to show a little gesture if you think it will make someone happy.
SourceWhen we grow up we are taught that we should be careful whom we trust. So how could it be right to have faith in God, someone whom you never even met? Sometimes you even doubt whether he exists at all! So is it really a great idea to have faith in such a person?
SourceIf you leave all religions and just surrender yourself to love, you will be free of the feelings of sin and guilt. Love will liberate you. Choose this path and you will be free from fear.
SourceIf you make relationships and break up after one week, I call it experience, not love. It is your search, looking for love. So many people can come and go, an ongoing process until you find love. But love never finishes.
