Walnut cake
Ingredients :
2 eggs
1 yogurt
125 g of walnut kernels
70g of flour
65g of Natsuc
100g of butter
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp baking powder
Preparation :
While the oven preheats to 200°C (gas mark 6-7), prepare the batter for this easy cake in a bowl: first pour in the eggs, Natsuc and vanilla flavoring, then mix them vigorously with a spoon to make them frothy.
Next, add the yogurt, 80g of melted butter, and the chopped walnuts (using a food processor or mortar and pestle), being careful to retain some texture and not turn the mixture into powder, and mix again. Finally, incorporate the flour, baking powder, and a pinch of salt until you obtain a smooth dough.
Grease a brownie tin (approximately 20 x 20 cm) with the remaining butter (softened or melted), then pour in the cake batter. Bake for about 30 minutes, depending on the thickness, and as with a chocolate or yogurt cake, check that it's perfectly moist by inserting a knife: it should come out with just a few moist crumbs clinging to it.
Let the walnut cake cool before unmolding it, and serve it in square slices, possibly decorated with a few walnut halves or, for those with a sweet tooth, with a caramelized banana.
