The addition of sour cream or yogurt enhances the cake’s softness, while the raisins, lightly dusted in flour, are evenly distributed throughout, adding bursts of flavor in every bite. Ideal for tea time, brunch, or as a light dessert, this loaf cake is easy to prepare and delivers a homemade warmth with every slice. Finished with a sprinkle of powdered sugar, it’s as visually appealing as it is delicious. Whether enjoyed warm from the oven or at room temperature, this classic cake is a guaranteed crowd-pleaser.

Directions

In a bowl, combine 100 g raisins with 1 tablespoon of flour. Mix well, then strain through a sieve to remove excess flour.
In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 eggs, 120 g sugar, a pinch of vanilla, and a pinch of salt until well combined. Add 80 g of melted butter and mix thoroughly. Next, incorporate 100 g of cottage cheese and 50 g of sour cream (or yogurt). Mix well. Add 10 g of baking powder and 150 g of flour, and mix until the batter is smooth. If necessary, add a little more flour to form a soft dough.
Fold the prepared raisins into the dough, ensuring even distribution. Grease a 24 x 11 cm baking pan and spoon the dough into it evenly.
Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (356°F) for 40 minutes. Once baked, remove from the oven, let it cool slightly, and sprinkle with powdered sugar. Slice into small pieces and serve.
