Single Layer Cake

A double layer cake leaves too much leftover so I found this recipe for a simple single layer. Made on 6/12 and 6/15. The first time I used fine patentbloem and the second time I used Amerikaanse tarwebloem.

  • 250 g flour (about 2 c, depending on type)
  • 1 T baking powder
  • 1/4 t salt
  • 113 g butter, room temp
  • 65 g grapeseed oil
  • 215 sugar
  • 1 egg + 2 egg whites, room temp
  • 1 T vanilla
  • 200 ml karnemelk (buttermilk) 
  1. Generously butter a 9" cake pan and coat with sugar.
  2. Combine flour, baking powder and salt in a small bowl.
  3. Beat butter, oil and sugar for 5 min.
  4. Beat in eggs one at a time. With the last egg, add the vanilla.
  5. Alternate folding flour and buttermilk starting with 1/3 of the flour mixture, then 1/2 of the buttermilk. Only fold until flour is incorporated, and no more!
  6. Pour into prepared pan and bake for 45-50 min or until a toothpick comes clean.
  7. Let cool for 10-15 min. Flip onto plate to finish cooling.
  8. Top with whipped cream and fruit.
  • 350 ml slagroom/whipping cream
  • pinch salt
  • 1/6 c sugar (1/4 c was too sweet)
  • 1 t vanilla
