Preparation

  • Preheat the oven to 180°C and butter a cake tin.
  • In a large bowl, combine the chestnut and wheat flours, sugar, yeast and pinch of salt.
  • In another bowl, beat the eggs, then add the melted butter and milk.
  • Mix well to obtain a homogeneous preparation.
  • Add the dry ingredients to the egg mixture in batches, mixing gently with each addition.
  • Add the chestnut jam with Madagascar vanilla, taking care to incorporate it well to perfume the whole pastry with its aromatic sweetness.
  • Pour the mixture into the buttered mold and bake for 35 to 40 minutes.
  • To check doneness, insert the tip of a knife: it should come out dry.
  • Leave to cool before unmoulding and serve with a touch of extra chestnut jam for those with a sweet tooth or our Poire Williams Châtaigne Fève Tonka Noix de Pécan caramélisées.

Tips: This cake goes perfectly with black tea or coffee.

For an even more gourmet version, you can add glazed chestnuts or walnuts to the dough.

A simple, authentic cake, ideal for fans of natural, comforting autumn flavors.
