For 8 portions

Ingredients

Dough:

500 g soft quark
450 g sour cream
100 g butter (room temperature)
8 eggs
7 tablespoons plain flour
7 tablespoons granulated sugar
Zest of 1 lemon

Optional: raisins, fruit, nuts

For the topping:

Apricot jam
Powdered sugar

Preparation procedure

Preparing the oven: Preheat the oven to 180 °C and grease the baking tray with butter.
Preparing the batter: Mix the quark with the sour cream, add the softened butter, eggs, flour, sugar and lemon zest. Mix everything thoroughly until you have a uniform batter.
Baking: Pour the batter onto a baking sheet with higher edges. Gently tap the tray several times on the kitchen counter to remove air bubbles. Bake in the preheated oven at 180 °C for 25–30 minutes, until the cake is nicely risen and golden. After removing from the oven the cake will sink slightly, which is completely normal and does not affect the taste.
Finishing: After baking you can spread apricot jam over the cake and dust it with powdered sugar, but it's great on its own too.

Try this irresistible quark cake and you’re sure to love it! Enjoy!
