Instructions

Preheat the oven to 180 °C fan oven / grease the springform pan and dust it with flour

1. 1

   Mix the flour, baking powder, sugar, vanilla sugar and salt (if you want it chocolatey, add cocoa).

2. 2

   Using the hand mixer, start stirring slowly and add the eggs and oil little by little. Then stir in the mineral water (sparkling water).

3. 3

   Beat the batter on the highest setting until it is smooth. Now you can stir in more flavourings as you like (lemon zest, lemon juice, chocolate flakes or similar).

   
4. 4

   Pour the batter into the prepared springform pan (e.g. Guglhupf pan) and bake in the oven for approx. 45 min.

5. 5

   After baking, let it cool on the wire rack for approx. 10 min. and then turn it out (if necessary, loosen the edge with a knife first).

   
6. 6

   Once the cake has cooled, you can top it with a sugar glaze or chocolate glaze as you like.

   The cake can happily be baked the evening before, then it will be even juicier the next day!
