Ingredients
- 220 g flour
- 1 packet vanilla pudding powder
- 1 packet baking powder
- 250 g powdered sugar
- 1 pinch of salt
- 250 ml neutral food oil
- 200 ml egg liqueur
- 5 eggs
- Some butter for greasing the pan
- Some flour for dusting the pan
- Some icing sugar for dusting
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 180 degrees Celsius (or 160 degrees for circulating air). Grease your Gugelhupf pan (22cm in diameter) with butter and dust it with flour to ensure the cake releases easily later on.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, pudding powder, and baking powder. It’s essential to mix them well to ensure uniformity.
- Combining Ingredients: Add powdered sugar, salt, and neutral food oil into the dry ingredients. Mix everything with a whisk until you have a smooth and well-combined batter.
- Add Egg Liqueur and Eggs: Pour in the egg liqueur and crack in the eggs. Mix on a medium speed until the batter is frothy—this usually takes around 2 minutes.
- Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared Gugelhupf pan and bake for 60 minutes on the lower rack of the oven.
- Cooling: Once baked, allow the cake to cool for about 15 minutes. Carefully invert it onto a piece of baking paper, letting it cool completely on a cake rack.
- Dust for Serving: Just before serving, dust the cake with some icing sugar to give it a beautiful finish.
