- 50 g butter melted
- 2 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- A pinch of salt
- Candied fruits or raisins optional
- Lemon or orange zest optional
Instructions
- Preparation: Begin by preheating your oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease a baking pan to ensure an easy release of the cake after baking.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the semolina, sugar, and a pinch of salt. Stir until well mixed.
- Add Melted Butter: Melt the butter and gently fold it into the semolina mixture, ensuring even distribution.
- Incorporate Milk: Heat the milk until it is warm (not boiling) and then stir it into the mixture. Make sure everything is blended nicely.
- Add Eggs and Vanilla: Beat the eggs and mix them with the vanilla extract. Add this mixture to the bowl, combining everything thoroughly.
- Optional Extras: If you’re feeling adventurous, add in your choice of candied fruits or some zest from a lemon or orange for an additional burst of flavor.
- Bake: Pour your well-mixed batter into the greased mold and bake for approximately 30-40 minutes, or until it's golden and firm to the touch.
- Cool: After baking, allow the cake to cool in the pan for a while, then remove it carefully and let it cool completely on a wire rack.
