Ingredients

  • 90 g (3 oz) melted butter

  • 2 eggs

  • 150 g (5.35 oz) sugar

  • 136 g (4.85 oz) flour

  • 60 ml (2 oz) kefir

  • 80 g (2.8 oz) caramel

  • 40 g (1.4 oz) caramel for filling (optional)

  • 1 tsp baking powder

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

  • A pinch of salt

  • 1 tsp cinnamon

  • Topping
  • 100 g (3.5 oz) caramel

Directions

  • Mix 1 tbsp of sugar with cinnamon.
  • In a large bowl, combine the remaining sugar with butter.
  • Add 2 eggs. The eggs should be at room temperature to create a smooth texture for the batter. In case you take the eggs out of the refrigerator, soak them in warm water for 5 minutes. Mix the mixture well with a mixer until smooth.
  • Add caramel, a pinch of salt, vanilla extract and kefir to a bowl. All ingredients should be at room temperature.
  • In another container, mix flour and baking powder.
  • Add the flour and baking powder mixture to the liquid ingredients in the bowl.
  • Mix well with a whisk. Do not use a mixer, otherwise the cake will not be as fluffy.
  • Take a baking form and spray it with unscented vegetable oil.
  • Pour the batter.
  • Optionally, you can add a couple of tablespoons of caramel for filling.
  • Place the cake to bake at 180 degrees C° (356 F) for 45 minutes. Check readiness with a toothpick; it should come out dry.
  • Cool the finished cake completely. Remove from pan and top with caramel. Bon appetit!
