Mor Monsen cake

Mor Monsen cake

The traditional Norwegian Mor Monsen cake has been passed down through generations. It's typically baked for Christmas, but this zesty cake is perfect for festive events all year round.

Ingredients

150 g butter
90 g Sukrin Gold
4 eggs + 2 tbsp. water
150 g wheat flour
25 g FiberFin (can be replaced with flour)
1 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. grated lemon zest
juice from ¼ lemon (optional)

Topping:
30 g almonds- blanched and sliced
3 tbsp. Sukrin Gold
30 g raisins

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius. Line a deep baking tray with baking paper.

Beat the butter and Sukrin Gold until white. Whisk the eggs and water together, then stir them into the butter mixture. Sift the flour, FiberFin and baking powder together and mix into the liquid ingredients. Add the lemon zest and juice (if using). Mix again.

Transfer the Mor Monsen cake batter to the baking tray, distribute evenly and sprinkle with almonds, Sukrin Gold and raisins. Bake for 18-20 minutes - the cake is done once it's turned light yellow. Slice the Mor Monsen cake into squares and cool in the baking tray.
