Are you craving a delicious homemade Italian dessert? Look no further than the classic ciambellone! This moist and fluffy cake is a staple in Italian households, perfect for any occasion. In this step-by-step guide, we will show you how to make your own ciambellone from scratch. Get your apron on and let’s get baking!

Ingredients:

  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 ½ cups granulated sugar
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • ½ cup vegetable oil
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Zest of 1 lemon
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions:

1. Preparing the Batter

Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C) and greasing a round cake pan generously. Dust it with flour to prevent sticking.

In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Mix well until all the dry ingredients are evenly incorporated.

In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and lemon zest. Make sure everything is well blended.

2. Mixing the Ingredients

Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients. Gradually pour the wet mixture into the well.

Using a wooden spoon or spatula, gently fold the wet and dry ingredients together. Mix until just combined, making sure not to overmix.

3. Baking the Ciambellone

Pour the batter into the greased cake pan and smooth the top with the back of a spoon.

Place the cake pan in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 45-50 minutes. To check if the ciambellone is done, insert a toothpick into the center. If it comes out clean, the cake is ready.

4. Cooling and Serving

Once baked, remove the ciambellone from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Serve the ciambellone as a delightful dessert for any occasion. Dust it with powdered sugar for an extra touch of sweetness, or serve with a dollop of whipped cream and fresh berries.

There you have it – a classic ciambellone made from scratch. Now, you can impress your loved ones with this traditional Italian treat. Buon appetito!
