Coffee cake with strong coffee

I treated myself to some new dishes and “inaugurated” the cups and plates with this impressively simple recipe for coffee cake. A simple, sweet, beautifully fluffy dough - and the strong coffee that flowed through the holes in the dough even creates a pretty, slightly marbled pattern.

Ingredients

250 g butter
250 g sugar
3 eggs
150 g potato flour
125 g flour
1 tsp baking powder
50 g strong coffee


Preparation

Preheat the oven to 350 °F (180 °C) upper/lower heat.

Beat butter, sugar and eggs in a large bowl until fluffy.

Then add the potato flour, flour and baking powder...

...and mix everything well until you get a nice, uniform dough.

Place in a springform pan (approx. 24 cm) lined with baking paper.

Poke small holes in the dough with a fork and carefully pour the coffee over the kitchen. (The coffee didn't flow so well for me, so I poked the dough a few more times with a fork so that all the liquid could seep in.)

Bake in a preheated oven at 350 °F (180 °C) upper and lower heat for approx. 45 - 50 minutes (test with a stick, maybe bake a little longer if the dough is not completely baked yet!).

Then let it cool down a little and serve.
