LAVAZZA STORIES

Coffee isn’t just for drinking; it’s a famous choice of flavouring that you can regularly spot in desserts like ice cream and cakes. The nutty bitterness and delightful aroma pair well with smooth cream, and it nicely supports the fluffy texture of a cake. .

For those of you who rarely express your creativity in the kitchen, making a cake from scratch might sound like a daunting task.

However, what if we tell you we have a quick and easy coffee cake recipe to share? It won’t take long to make, and its even easy for beginner bakers! For experienced bakers, our recipe can be your quick go-to creation when you’re craving a tasty espresso cake or need to whip up something in a flash to serve your guests.

Are you eager to know more about this delectable bittersweet dessert? Here’s our kitchen-tested simple coffee cake recipe you can follow without a hassle.

Coffee Cake: Easy and Quick Recipe

Our easy coffee cake recipe ingredients can be found in any supermarket, but we recommend you try using our Qualità Oro for the perfect taste. The medium roast beans taste aromatic, making them the ideal dessert flavouring. Our Qualità Oro blend is best for Moka Pot brewing, so you can easily make it at home to add to your batter.

We’ve promised that this simple coffee cake recipe won’t take too long to make nor require you to be skilful to get the best results. It’ll only take a few minutes to prepare the batter, and then you can put it right into your oven. Before jumping to the recipe, here are the equipment and ingredients we use to make this cafe cake.

Equipment

Mixing bowl (2)
Electric whisk
9-inch cake mould
Sifter or mesh strainer

Ingredients

3 eggs
2 ½ cups of all-purpose flour
1 cup of granulated sugar
2 tbsp of powdered sugar
½ cup of vegetable oil
7/16 cup of milk
7/16 cup of Lavazza Qualità Oro “Sinfonia Perfetta” coffee
4 tsp of baking powder

Steps

Preheat your oven to 350°F and take out your mixing bowl.
Crack the three eggs into the mixing bowl. Then, add the granulated sugar to the eggs. Mix the two ingredients using an electric whisk and slowly pour the milk and vegetable oil into the mixture.
Sift the all-purpose flour with a mesh strainer or a sifter into another bowl for a smooth cafe cake texture. Then, take the electric whisk out off of the batter.
Gradually add the sifted flour into the wet mixture and stir until there’s no lump in the batter. After everything is well mixed in, add the baking powder.
Pour in the brewed Qualità Oro Sinfonia Perfetta blend into the batter. Combine the ingredients and mix evenly.
Prepare the mould by coating the surface with butter, then add a thin and even layer of flour. By coating the mould, your cake won’t stick, so you can take it out without ruining the shape. When it’s ready, pour in the batter to the mould.
Put the cake pan into your oven and let it bake for 60 minutes.
After 60 minutes, use a toothpick or a fork to check your cake. If there’s no wet batter sticking onto the fork or the toothpick, you can take it out of the oven. If there’s a trace of wet batter, let it bake for several minutes before checking again.
Let your freshly baked coffee flavoured cake rest and cool at room temperature for a few minutes before opening the mould.
Transfer it to a plate and serve! You can decorate the cake with powdered sugar for presentation and add sweetness to the espresso cake.

Enjoy the cake!

Now that your coffee cake is done, don’t hesitate to take a slice and enjoy it while it’s warm! That first delicious bite will leave you and your guests amazed. Even if you’re not a master baker, it’s not impossible to create a tasty cafe cake.

Whether you’re craving something sweet in the morning or need a flavourful afternoon pick-me-up, this coffee flavoured cake will deliver. With its simple mix-and-bake method this coffee cake might be your new favourite companion to your cosy coffee breaks.
