Savory Loaf Cakes: Cheese, Cashewnut And Bell Pepper Cake
Advertisement
Savory cakes are very popular in France, they appear in boulangeries and with a side salad on lunch menus in chic cafes, but they are most likely to appear at a picnic. Yummy savory cake filled with cheese, cashew nuts, caramelized onions and bell peppers. It tastes incredible. This cake is super simple to make and you can always make a scrumptious loaf cake using all the fresh produce available in the current season. I find this so clever.

Ingredients
- 250 gm Flour Plain Flour
- 1 tbsp Baking Powder
- 150 gm Cheese cut into small pieces (refer notes)
- 80 gm Cashews roughly chopped
- 100 gm Bell Pepper Red and Yellow, finely chopped, refer notes
- 3 - 4 Red Onions finely sliced
- 4 Egg
- 150 ml Olive oil

Instructions
- Caramelized the sliced onions and keep aside .
- Preheat the oven to 180C/350F/ and line a loaf tin measuring 22x11cm/8½x4¼inch across the top and 6cm/2½inch deep with baking paper
- In a bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, cheese, cashewnuts, bell peppers and caramelized onions
- In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs until fluffy and pale in color. Then gradually whisk in the oil, milk and yoghurt. Season with the salt and black pepper
- Fold the flour mixture into the whisked eggs. Try not to overbeat the mixture as this will make the end result tough. (it is better to undermix)
- Pour the batter into the prepared tin. Sprinkle on top with fresh coriander leaves
- Bake for 30-40 minutes or until a metal skewer inserted in the centre of the cake comes out clean. (when I say clean knife, please ignore if melted cheese comes on it, that does not mean it is not cooked. If uncooked batter appears on the knife, it needs further cooking.)
- Leave to cool in the tin
Notes
- You can use any kind of cheese. I used a mixture of grated cheddar, mozzarella and normal cheese cubes. Also I added a little lesser than mentioned in the recipe. You can even goat’s cheese to make it healthier
- If you do not have red and yellow bell pepper, you can always use green bell peppers. The original recipe uses a combination of cheese, pistachios and prunes. So be creative when it comes to the filling.
- Use a rubber spatula rather than a whisk to prevent overbeating the flour.
