Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180 °C (350 °F) and butter a 22 cm (9 in) loaf or round pan.
- Whisk the eggs with the sugar and vanilla for 4 to 5 minutes, until the mixture turns pale.
- Add the crème fraîche and melted butter while whisking.
- Sift the flour with the baking powder and salt, then gently fold them in with a spatula.
- Pour the batter into the pan and smooth the top. Sprinkle with sliced almonds if you like.
- Bake for 35 to 40 minutes. Check doneness with the tip of a knife: it should come out dry.
- Let it cool for 10 minutes before unmolding and dust with powdered sugar.
Variations and tips
Lemon version. Add the zest of one lemon to the batter.
With what's available here. Thick crème fraîche is sold everywhere; whipping cream can stand in for it.
