- Preparation: 20 min
- Cooking: 35 min
- Makes: 1 serving (148 g)
- Difficulty: Easy
- Diets: Vegetarian
- Contains: alcohol, dairy, egg, gluten
Ingredients
- 25 g Eggs
- 22 g Sugar
- 25 g Flour, all-purpose
- 10 g Butter, melted
- 12 g Milk, whole
- 1 g Baking powder
- 0.3 g Vanilla extract
- 0.2 g Lemon zest
- 0.3 g Salt
- 50 g Cherries, stoned (or other seasonal fruit)
- 2 g Icing sugar
Method
- Heat the oven to 180 °C and butter and flour a baking tin, or line it with baking paper. Stone the cherries.
- Separate the eggs. Beat the yolks with two thirds of the sugar, the vanilla and the lemon zest for 3-4 minutes until pale and thick, then beat in the melted, cooled butter and the milk.
- Mix the flour with the baking powder and fold it into the yolk mixture.
- Whisk the egg whites with the salt, adding the rest of the sugar, into stiff, glossy peaks, and fold them gently into the batter.
- Spread the batter in the tin about 2 cm deep and scatter the fruit over it. The fruit sinks a little and the batter bubbles up around it as it bakes, which gives the cake its name.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, until golden and a skewer pushed into the middle comes out clean.
- Leave to cool in the tin, dust with icing sugar and cut into squares.
