Savory Green Cake
15 people
20 minutes
Ingredients
80 grams unsalted butter, at room temperature
80 grams plant-based butter, at room temperature
4 eggs
290 grams self-rising flour
100 grams grated Old Amsterdam cheese
400 grams grated carrots
400 grams chopped frozen spinach
Freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
Let the spinach thaw.
Preheat the oven to 175°C.
Grease all four inner sides of a loaf pan with butter.
Press baking paper into the pan and snip the corners so it fits neatly.
Beat the eggs with the butter; it will look a bit like scrambled eggs, which is fine.
Add the self-rising flour and fold it in to make a batter.
Stir in the Old Amsterdam cheese and pepper to taste. The batter will be quite thick.
Divide the batter into two equal parts.
Squeeze the thawed spinach well in a sieve and mix it into one half of the batter.
Mix the grated carrots into the other half.
Using a spatula, shape the carrot mixture diagonally upward in the loaf pan.
Spoon the spinach batter on top and smooth the surface.
Place the pan in the middle of the oven and bake for 60 minutes.
Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool for 10 minutes.
Take it out of the pan, slice, and serve immediately.
Tip: This savory cake also tastes delicious as a side dish with fish or meat.
Storage advice: Keep in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
