My first savoury cake with a recipe from Sophie Dudemaine wasn’t a success, not to say a disaster. But for Meeta’s Monthly Mingle: Savory Cakes I gave another recipe a try and this time fortune smiled on me. So I bring along my
Bacon & Prune Cake
Sophie Dudemaine gives us her cooking secrets to make a good cake with bacon and prune. A nice lunch at work.

Directions
Preheat oven to 180 °C (160 °C fan. In a bowl mix thoroughly flour and baking powder, add eggs and whisk well. Add oil, warm milk and grated cheese. Fry bacon without fat about 5 minutes unitil golden.* Mix together prunes and bacon and add to the batter. Pour into baking tin and bake about 45 minutes.
Note Ulrike: I lined the tin with paper
* While preheating the oven I put a pan with the bacon into the oven. To remove the excess fat put on kitchen towel. Sprinkle prunes and bacon with little flour and add to the batter.

Sehr Schön
Doch ich hätte diese rezept auch im auge. Glad that you gave the book another go. I really like all the recipes she offers. Thanks for bringing it to the Mingle.
I love the cross section of the loaf showing the pink of the ham and the black prunes! Looks delicious! By the way, thanks for tip about Quark – I’ve seen it in the supermarkets here but didn’t know what it was!
Looks fantastic! Great mix of tastes. My mom gave me a couple of her cookbooks a few years ago and I have yet to make something that actually works as the recipe is written…weird!
