The best cakes in the world are those made by grandma! Here Grandma Berthe shares her raisin cake recipe... yummm...

Ingredients for 8 servings

4 eggs
200 g sugar
1 packet vanilla sugar
300 g type 45 flour
1 pot sour cream or 80 g butter
1 packet baking powder
black or white grapes (I prefer not to remove the seeds)

Step-by-step directions

Preheat the oven to 180°
In the mixer, whiten the eggs, sugar and vanilla sugar.
Add the flour and cream or softened butter.
Beat again.
Butter a baking sheet (approximately 37cm by 27cm).
Spread the batter.
Sprinkle with numerous grape seeds (the seeds should almost touch each other if you want a moist cake).
I advise not removing the grape seeds to avoid softening the batter too much.
Sprinkle with powdered sugar
Bake for 30 minutes

Chef Patrick's Comment

A somewhat curious recipe, it's up to you to judge, cream or butter? baking powder or baker's yeast? I'm a bit uncertain about this recipe that you will of course only make in season around the month of September.
