Baking

Today I felt like I wanted something my grandma typically made around this time of the year. It’s called apricot cake, a typical viennese desert or coffee cake.

You need:

  • 300g Butter
  • powdered sugar
  • 1 tea spoon vanilla sugar
  • pinch salt
  • 5 Eggs
  • 300g Flour
  • 1 tea spoon baking powder
  • Apricots

How to:

Combine butter and powdered sugar and beat until soft and smooth. Add the eggs one by one and keep combining until all eggs are in the bowl and mixed. Now add the flour bit by bit and keep combining until you have a smooth dough.

Using a baking tray put a baking paper on the tray and put the dough evenly on the baking tray. Now add the apricots. Pre-Heat the oven to 160C and bake for 20 to 35 minutes depending on your oven. When you take it out, let it cool down and put powdered sugar on top. You can also replace Apricots by Strawberries, Peaches, Cherries and other fresh fruit. The only fruits that don’t work are apples, pears, oranges…
