The walnut cake trap: overmix after adding flour and it gets dense and gluey. Here we fold in just before the oven, 40 minutes at 180°C max. Result: soft and tender, never rubbery.

Ingredients for 6 servings
servings
4.4 oz (125 g) of artisanal fromage blanc
8.5 oz (240 g) of caster sugar
0.5 cup (13 cl) of artisanal walnut oil
12.25 oz (350 g) of type 55 flour
2.8 oz (80 g) of Grenoble walnut kernels, toasted and chopped
3 free-range eggs
1 packet of baking powder
1 packet of vanilla sugar
Step-by-step directions
Preheat your oven to 355°F (180 °C) (gas mark 6).
1 In a large mixing bowl, add your fromage blanc and pour in your lightly beaten eggs, then add the sugar and mix it all together well. Then add your oil, your flour and finally your packets (baking powder and vanilla sugar) and a pinch of salt.
2 Pour into your cake tin and bake for 40 minutes in the middle of the oven.
Serve with, for example, a fresh apricot coulis.
A chef's advice
Toasted Grenoble walnuts make all the difference: they bring a light bitterness that balances the sweetness of caster sugar and vanilla sugar. During baking, the soft cheese acts as a fine binder, lighter than eggs alone. Walnut oil keeps the cake tender for three days without drying out. A fresh apricot coulis is the simple touch: a few apricots pushed through a sieve, a touch of honey, that's it.
