This is my special recipe for:
Hollands Ontbijt Koek
translated Dutch Breakfast Spice Cake
(But it's really "eat-it-anytime-cake")
4 cups white flour
2 cups white sugar
2 eggs
1 cup honey
2 cups water
2 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp nutmeg
1/2 gloves
2 tsp ginger
2 tsp bakingsodaOne important thing,
- Mix all dry ingredients
- Mix all wet ingredients with the
blender- Add wet to the dry ingredients and blend on high speed until well blended.
Put it in a greased and floured bundt pan. AND ONLY A
BUNDT
(not in a loaf or square pan as it rises in the
middle. I have made that mistake.)
Bake 30 min on 400
then for another 30 min on 300, (ovens vary)
Should be dry to the touch,
and an inserted tooth-pick
should come out clean.
It should come out of the pan quite
easely.
That's all folks, too little work for such a good tasting cake! (And low fat too)
Keep in ziplock bag on the counter or in the fridge. It's even better after a couple days. In fact, the older it gets the better it gets! (JUST LIKE ME!!)
Enjoy!

THIS IS MY FAVOURITE THING! I love this spice cake. I especially love the sticky outside. It's kinda like a coffee cake, but you don't need to top it with anything. Not even butter. It's sooooo yummy. AND LOW FAT!
And yes....the BUNT pan is the only way to do this cake.
Bundt.
And that's all I have to say about that.
Funny that you should make Onbijtkoek in a bundt pan!!
We eat it all the time and I have only ever had it in a loaf! In Holland that is!!!
So.....there is a different way for this cake Yvonne - but you are sure right in that it is delicious!!!!!
Bundt?
Do you mean a round tin so that it can rise to a peak in the middle?
Please excuse us uniformed Welsh folks!!!
