Honey and hazelnut loaf cake

This recipe is very simple to make for breakfast. It can take a bit longer if, like me, you have a hazelnut tree that’s given you loads of hazelnuts and you start from whole nuts… But since they’re so good, you won’t regret it ^^

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Toast the hazelnuts so the skins come off more easily. A few minutes in a dry pan is enough..

    If you bought the hazelnuts pre-packed or loose, you can toast them briefly too. It gives them a lovely little flavour.

    Beat together the eggs and sugar, the honey (runny if possible) and the butter.

    Add all at once the flour sifted with the baking powder and carry on mixing, adding the hazelnuts at the end.

    To check whether your cake is done, push a knife blade into the thickest part. If it comes out clean, it’s done ^^
