Jam-Filled Kefir Cake

Fragrant and airy cake with sour cream. The taste of the cake is simply amazing; you can’t even tell that it consists of the simplest ingredients and is literally prepared “with your eyes closed.” You can use whatever jam you want, just without seeds: plum, strawberry, peach, raspberry, etc. But if it contains berries, then it is better to first crush them in a blender until you obtain a homogeneous paste. When the cake is ready, put it in the refrigerator for a while so that it is properly soaked.

Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to bake a delicious cake with kefir jam? Pour the sugar intended for the dough into a deep bowl and beat in the eggs. Beat with a mixer at medium speed for 5-7 minutes until a fluffy and light mass forms.

Step 2

Step 2
Pour kefir at room temperature into a separate bowl and add jam or marmalade — I used apple jam. The color and taste of the cake will depend on the type of jam. Mix with a mixer at low speed until smooth.

Step 3

Step 3
Pour kefir into a bowl with the egg-sugar mixture and add baking soda. Mix with a silicone spatula.

Step 4

Step 4
Add the sifted flour and gently mix everything with a whisk until there are no flour lumps left. The dough is of medium thickness.

Step 5

Step 5
Grease a baking dish (I have a detachable one) with vegetable oil and place it in a preheated oven for 5 minutes — the oil will warm up and the cake will not stick. Pour out all the dough at once and shake the pan a little to even it out. Place the dough in the oven at 160 degrees for 40 minutes.

Step 6

Step 6
Remove the finished cake from the oven, let it cool slightly and remove the molds. I have a mold with a diameter of 16.5 cm — the cake came out high.

Step 7

Step 7
Preparing the cream. To do this, mix sour cream with sugar. There is no need to beat with a mixer, just mix gently with a spoon. We use sour cream with a fat content of 20% or higher.

Step 8

Step 8
Cut the biscuit crosswise into 2 parts — the convex top can be cut off. Grease the bottom cake with cream. Place the second cake layer on top.

Step 9

Step 9
We also grease it with cream and sprinkle the cake with grated chocolate on top.
