Ingredients

Instructions

  1. 1. Preheat the oven to 175 °C (top/bottom heat) and well grease a loaf pan of about 25 cm. Alternatively, you can line the pan with baking paper.
  2. 2. Beat the eggs together with powdered sugar and vanilla sugar in a large bowl for several minutes until the mixture becomes light and creamy.
  3. 3. Now incorporate the melted, but no longer hot, butter. Add the chestnut puree and stir everything into a homogeneous mass. Gently fold in the ground hazelnuts into the batter.
  4. 4. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the surface. Bake the cake on the middle rack for about 45–50 minutes. Towards the end, do the skewer test: if no batter sticks to it, the cake is done.
  5. 5. Let the chestnut cake cool briefly in the pan, then carefully turn it out and let it cool completely on a wire rack. Before serving, you can optionally dust it with powdered sugar.
