Next time you prepare a fresh juice to kick-start your day, don't throw away all that leftover fruit and vegetable pulp. There are plenty of ways you can put the fibre-packed pulp to good use so that it doesn’t go to waste. The PureJuice stand mixer attachment separates out the pulp as it extracts the juice, ready for it to be blended into smoothies, added to soups or baked into brownies, cakes and muffins. This recipe uses the pulp from carrots, apples and beetroots to create a wonderfully sweet cake, topped with cream cheese frosting and nuts and seeds. However, it can easily be adapted to work with any leftover pulp. Using pulp in baking recipes will often add moisture, meaning you can sometimes reduce the amount of oil or butter you use to create an even healthier alternative. Apple pulp is a neutral flavour that can be paired with pretty much anything, while citrus pulp can be used to add extra zing to a lemon and poppyseed cake. Beetroot also works beautifully with chocolate, making gorgeously moist and sweet brownies. Here’s our step-by-step guide to making a delicious juice pulp cake with your Titanium Chef Patissier XL and PureJuice attachment. Hopefully it will inspire you to find new and creative ways to use your leftover juice pulp!

Juicing the fruit and veg
Assemble the PureJuice attachment and fit onto your mixer’s slow speed outlet. Place a bowl under the pulp spout, and another under the juice spout.
With the mixer on speed 6, add the carrots, apples, beetroot and ginger into the feed tube, using the pusher.
Refrigerate the juice and set the pulp aside.
Making the cake batter
Preheat the oven to 160℃. Grease both cake tins and line with parchment paper.
Lift your mixer’s head and fit the heat shield. Attach the 7L EasyWarm™bowl before fixing the K-beater and splashguard.
Add the oil, eggs, sugar, flour, baking powder, soda, spices and salt to the bowl. Pour in 50ml of the chilled juice and 350g of the pulp.
Select the ‘sponge cake’ preset, is applicable. If your mixer doesn't have presets, start mixing on speed Min, gradually increasing to speed Max. Mix for 1 minute, until combined.
Baking av kaken
Del blandingen jevnt mellom de to forberedte formene. Stek i 30–35 minutter. Hvis du bruker en brødform i stedet, stek i 1 time og 10 minutter.
Ta ut av ovnen og plasser kakene på et stativ. La de avkjøles helt.
Bland frostingen
Fest blandebollen til mikseren og sett på krempisken.
For å lage frostingen, tilsett smør, melis og vaniljeekstrakt i bollen. Start på hastighet Min, og øk gradvis til hastighet 4. Bland i 2 minutter til den er lett og luftig.
Tilsett kremosten og bland på hastighet 2 i ytterligere 20 sekunder, til blandingen kombineres.
The finished product
Once the cakes have cooled completely, use a palette knife or the back of a spoon to spread the frosting over the top of each sponge. Place one sponge layer on top of the other. Sprinkle the top with the chopped pistachio nuts, poppy seeds and pumpkin seeds.
