Servings10 slices
Ingredients
- 1 cup maida | flour ~135 gms
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar ~165 gms
- 2 tablespoon butter
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 cup hot milk ~125 ml
- 2 eggs
- 1/4 cup walnuts chopped
- 1/4 cup butterscotch chips
- 1 teaspoon vanilla essence
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
NOTE : If you dont have butterscotch chips, then skip it and proceed with just walnuts. But add 1 cup of sugar, I added only 3/4 cup because I added butterscotch chips.
Instructions
- Sieve together maida, salt and baking powder, set aside. Beat eggs until fluffy , transfer to a mixing bowl and set aside.
- Add sugar, then vanilla essence and honey to beaten eggs, mix well until sugar completely dissolves.
- Add butter to milk and heat it until butter melts, wait till it cools down.
- Then add it to the egg sugar mixture.
- Then add maida in portions and mix well till a creamy batter is formed without any lumps.
- Finally fold in walnuts and butterscotch.
- Preheat oven at 180 deg C for 10mins.
- Meanwhile grease the pan with oil and little flour , tap off excess flour then add the prepared batter till 3/4th (or even 1/2 is ok) of the pan.
- Garnish with walnuts and butterscotch (mix butterscotch with a teaspoon of maida and then add to avoid sinking to the bottom) on top and bake it for 35- 40mins or until the top turns golden brown.
- Cool down for at least 30mins – 1 hour then cut into slices and enjoy Loaf Cake. Best as a tea time cake.
Notes
- I had some leftover butterscotch chips so wanted to use it. You can skip it if you don't have and proceed with just walnuts or I highly recommend adding caramel(1/8 cup)
- Mix butterscotch chip with a teaspoon of maida and then add to avoid sinking to the bottom.
- You can use this recipe for a basic sponge cake, the taste and texture is too good.
- This time I didn't lay a butter paper just greased it with little oil and flour. The cake came out clean.
