Kefir cakes are among the most popular recipes because they are simple and also successful among lovers of sweet desserts. You can prepare a soft, fresh and airy cake; moreover, you can substitute the cherries or sour cherries with any other fruit you like best.
You will never want to make other cakes again
This cake really looks heavenly and it will be hard not to eat it just with coffee while sitting. Prepare the following ingredients for it:
- 2 eggs
- a tablespoon of sugar
- salt
- a cup of semolina
- a cup of cherries
- a cup of flour
- a cup of kefir
- 0.5 cup sunflower oil
- a teaspoon of baking powder
The procedure is very simple, so you’ll like it and in a while you won’t even need the recipe. Whisk the sugar with the eggs and a pinch of salt until a smooth foam forms. Pour in the kefir, stir, add the semolina, flour and baking powder and stir again into a smooth batter. Add the oil and mix.
Let the batter rest and preheat your oven
Set the finished batter aside, cover it and let it rest for about 10–15 minutes. Prepare the fruit – you can use either fresh cherries or frozen ones. It’s up to each person whether to pit the fruit beforehand (which is better), or leave the cherries whole and let others deal with the pits. Prepare a baking dish so the cake will be sufficiently high. Grease it with oil and pour in the batter.
Place the fruit on the surface and press it lightly into the batter, but not too deep so the fruits remain visible. Put it into an oven preheated to 180 degrees and bake for about 50 minutes depending on your oven. You’ll know the cake is done when you stick a skewer into the batter. If no batter sticks to it, it’s ready. Let it cool and then serve. You can make sour cream with powdered sugar to go with the cake, which will only enhance its great taste. You can enjoy the dessert with coffee, but if you decorate it beautifully, you can also show it off at a celebration.
