Eggless Ontbijtkoek

As I promised you, this is the other recipe of Ontbijtkoek which doesn't use any eggs. No mixer is needed! You'll love the recipe :).



I made this cake as a cupcake so my kids could easily eat it. The texture of the cake was dense (pretty similar with muffin) but moist. It's because the usage of honey.

Preparation time: 15 minutes
Cooking time: 1 hour

Ingredients:
9 oz / 250 g self-raising flour
Pinch of salt
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon ground cloves
½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
½ teaspoon ground ginger
4 oz / 100 g brown sugar
4 oz / 100 g honey
6 fl oz / 175 ml milk



Directions :
Preheat the oven to 320 degrees F / 160 degrees C.

Mix the flour, salt and spices together in a bowl. Add the sugar, milk and honey and beat until smooth. Add a little more milk if the mixture is too thick.

Lightly grease an 8 in x 4 in / 20 cm x 10 cm bread tin and pour the cake mix into it.

Put on the floor of the oven and bake for an hour. The cake is done when a knife inserted into it comes out clean. If it comes out moist, cook for a further 10 minutes.

Remove from the oven and turn out onto a cooling rack.

Serve warm from the oven on its own, or spread with butter. The cake’s delicate sweetness also makes it a great accompaniment to cheese.



If there’s any left over, wrap it in aluminium foil to keep moist.
