Ortigara Cake
Ortigara cake is a rustic Italian mountain-style cake with a golden crumb, nuts, dried fruit, and citrus. It is sturdy enough for slicing yet tender beside coffee or a simple after-dinner glass.
π Recipe adapted from Wikidata (Dish)
Cream butter and sugar, then beat in eggs and lemon zest until light.
Fold flour and baking powder into the batter with nuts, raisins, and diced fruit.
Spoon into a buttered round or ring pan and smooth the top without compacting it.
Bake until the cake is golden and a skewer comes out with moist crumbs.
Cool before dusting with powdered sugar and cutting thick slices.
