TAMARILLO LOAF CAKE

Posted On: 2025-10-03 12:53:03

Ingredients:

145 gram butter, softened

1/2 cup caster sugar

2 tablespoon honey

2 large eggs

2/3 cup plain flour

2 teaspoon baking powder

1/4 cup almond meal

splash of milk (optional)

5 large tamarillos, peeled and cut into 3 thick slices

Directions:

Preheat oven to 180°C. Grease and line a 25cm x 13cm) loaf tin. Dust the bottom lightly with flour.

Cream the butter, sugar and honey until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, and beat until combined (don’t worry if the batter curdles). Fold in the sifted flour, baking powder and almond meal, then mix. The batter should be light and somewhere between a stiff and dropping consistency. If it’s too stiff, loosen by adding a little milk.

Put the tamarillo slices in a single layer on the base of the prepared tin. Scrape the batter over and smooth. Bake for 45-50 minutes or until an inserted skewer comes out clean.

Leave to cool for 15 minutes, then invert onto a plate so that the cut tamarillos face upwards.
