After waking up in the morning, I decided to bake the fastest cake in my opinion - grated with jam. It is decided, done. And at lunch, when I realized that I needed to stop and drink tea with a cake, I did not find a single piece of cake. Did my family so quickly eat a huge pie for a whole baking tray? Yes exactly.
Do you want to make the same cake? I am sure that many experienced housewives already know this recipe and it is unequivocally tested. But, all the same, we will remind experienced housewives (they suddenly forgot that there is just such a recipe), and I will tell you in detail for those who are just standing on the quay and wondering whether they are boarding a boat called baking.
In the course of the recipe, I will reveal the subtleties of cooking and small secrets and tricks.
Ingredients:
Margarine - 250 g;
Flour - 500 g (maybe a little more or less);
Baking Powder - 1 tsp;
Jam - 200 g;
Sugar - 130 g;
Eggs - 2 pcs .;
Vanilla essence - 2 drops.
Recipe:
Take margarine for baking. It should be baking. Put it in a warm place to make it soft. Usually margarine quickly reaches the desired plasticity. Pour sugar into a large bowl and cut into small margarine.
Whip the margarine with butter until sugar dissolves. In my case, margarine did not turn into a uniform airy texture, but small pieces remained. It did not affect the taste of the cake, I would say that the dough should be more shortcrust. Add vanilla.
Adding eggs.
Beat the dough again with a mixer or a whisk. Sift flour in a separate bowl with baking powder.
Add flour gradually. Its quality depends on the quality of flour. The poet does not need to put the whole portion of flour into the dough. Add half, then another, until the dough is plastic and does not stick to your hands.
The color of the dough can be adjusted by adding 1 teaspoon of turmeric to the dough. The dough will be yellow. And when baking more rosy.
Divide the dough into two parts and put in the freezer in the bag. We leave it for half an hour so that it will freeze and it can be rubbed.
Roll out one piece of dough and put it on a laid or greased baking sheet or baking dish. Make the edges on the edges, bending the dough.
We spread the jam. For such a cake is better to take jam - a thicker jam. If there is no such thing, but you still want the cake, mix the jam with cornstarch or potato starch (per 100 g of jam, 1 tsp. Of starch). When baking starch will thicken the jam, and it will not spread.
We take out the second piece of dough and rub it on top of the grated jam.
We bake the cake for 25-30 minutes at 180-200 degrees. The cake should be reddened, the dough should be crumbly.
Cool the finished cake and cut it into pieces.
Good appetite!
