I’m sharing with you the recipe for my family’s favorite cake… Whenever you visit my home, this cake will definitely be ready in the kitchen under its glass dome ??? It’s called “Chambelloné” in Italian, which is a classic Italian cake usually enjoyed for breakfast or simply with tea or coffee. For most young people, this cake will remind them of their grandmother or mother ? In childhood, kids usually have a slice of this cake for a snack, accompanied by a cup of milk or cocoa ?
You will need:
- 250g sugar
- 3 eggs
- 300g flour
- 16g baking powder
- A pinch of salt
- 200ml milk
- 200ml vegetable oil
- Grated lemon zest
If you want a less airy consistency and more like a sponge cake, use the following proportions (the preparation process is the same – it’s available in the story):
- 250g sugar
- 4 eggs
- 300g flour
- 16g baking powder
- A pinch of salt
- 100ml milk
- 165ml vegetable oil
- Lemon or orange zest
- Everything is prepared in one container.
- Beat the eggs with sugar.
- Then add the milk while continuing to beat.
- Add the vegetable oil while continuing to beat.
- Now add the flour, baking powder, and lemon zest, and mix well.
- Chambelloné can be topped with nuts, raisins, chocolate, etc.
- You can divide the batter into two parts and mix one part with cocoa powder. This will create a two-tone cake and delight your children with a chocolate filling.
- Do not mix fruits into the batter. They are heavy and can prevent the cake from rising.
- Preheat the oven to 180°C (without ventilation) and bake for 45 minutes. Sometimes it may take less time, depending on the oven.
Good luck! And… Buon Appetito! ?
