There are many different variations of the recipe, but the basic ingredients typically include flour, sugar, butter, eggs, and cinnamon. The cake can be made in a loaf pan or a bundt pan, and it is often topped with a glaze made from powdered sugar and milk.

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 9

1,5 c + 2 tbsp. flour
4 Tbsp sugar
1/2 pkg fresh yeast - equal to 25 grams
1 pinch salt
2/3 c lukewarm milk
1/5 stick butter, softened
1/2 c butter or 1 stick of butter
1/2 c brown sugar, firmly packed
4 Tbsp dark syrup - not molasses

Steps:

  • 1. Set aside the last three ingredients - it's the sugar mass on the top.
  • 2. Dissolve the yeast in the warm milk.
  • 3. Add all the dry ingredients into the liquid. Mix it lightly with a hand mixer or your kitchen machine, then add the soft butter.
  • 4. Mix it well on medium speed. Form a dough ball. Cover and let it rise for 20 min.
  • 5. Add the last three ingredients to a small pot and let it all melt on low heat - don't boil! When it's all an even mass turn off the heat.
  • 6. Take a 10" x 15" pan. Grease it or use baking sheet. Spread out the dough in the pan just using your hands. Poke holes into the dough with your fingers. Then pour over the sugar mass from the pot. Let it rise an extra 20 min. Before putting it in the oven poke the dough once more ... Here I used the handle of a big wooden spoon.
  • 7. Bake for 13-15 min on 350 F

My mother taught me to make this recipe when I was a very young child. I was always interested in learning how to bake and cook from a very young age. This is in honour of my mother's passing in March 2000. Thank you Mor!

Tips:

- Use high-quality ingredients, such as real butter and fresh eggs, for the best flavor. - Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will help to incorporate air into the batter, resulting in a lighter cake. - Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. This will help to prevent the batter from curdling. - Stir in the flour and baking powder gradually. Overmixing the batter can result in a tough cake. - Bake the cake in a preheated oven. This will help to ensure that the cake bakes evenly. - Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.
