The soft cake with jam is a recipe without butter, tasty, delicious, and very easy. I used my Thermomix for the dough, but you can also use electric beaters and, before baking it, I sprinkled the surface with cherry jam. It is truly a perfect cake for breakfast in the morning or for a genuine snack for our children.
I made this cake to celebrate my husband’s birthday. He requested a rustic, simple dessert that he could also enjoy at breakfast because he loves breakfast ring cakes, the ones you can dip into cappuccino. The choice could only fall on this wonderful recipe. I decided to prepare it in a square mold because, once cooked, cooled, and sprinkled with powdered sugar, I cut it into squares, so cute and lovely.
Let’s get started and make it together, shall we? Hands in the dough, sweet tooths! See you soon, Susy.
