It have been the most amazing weather here the last week, 17 degrees and sunny. And also, yesterday was a bank holiday (or as we call them – red day) so the weekend suddenly felt twice as long.
I spent most of my day off in my garden, planting and sunbathing. Somehow I managed to get the most amazing sunburn, just on my elbows. Nowhere else. So I´m going for the long-sleeves today.
I also bought a barbecue, one of those small portable ones. So tonight I´m going to throw some burgers on the grill, with beer (not on the grill) and good company. I can’t wait.
Do you remember the classic recipe for Swedish Kladdkaka I posted this Easter? This recipe is almost like the classic recipes little sister. Still rich from the browned butter and crazy gooey, but fresher and more summery. I served this when I had a group of people over and it was one big crowdpleaser.
You will need;
150 g butter
2 lemons
2 eggs
1 cup caster sugar
0,5 cups flour
2 tbs vanilla sugar (or 1 tbs vanilla extract)
Shredded coconut
To serve;
Strawberries
Whipped cream
Do this;
Preheat the oven to 160 degrees. Then grease a round baking pan with a loose bottom (approximately 20-25 cm in diameter) with some butter, add in some shredded coconut and move it around so it sticks to the butter inside the pan.
Brown the butter on a pan on medium heat until it goes golden and starts to get a nutty flavor. Let it cool down completely. Wash the lemons carefully, zest them into the butter and squeeze out the juice. Set aside.
Whisk the eggs and sugar in a bowl until it becomes white and fluffy. Mix the flour and vanilla sugar before folding it into the egg-mixture. Add in the butter with lemon in it. Fold together gently until everything is combined.
Pour the batter into the baking pan and bake in the oven for about 20-25 min, it should still be gooey in the middle. Let cool and then store in the fridge until serving. Serve with fresh strawberries and softly whipped cream.
Looks yumm 👌

This sounds like a perfect dessert for this sudden burst of heat in the UK. Lovely photos too 🙂 Thanks for sharing at Fiesta Friday – don’t forget to link up so everyone can see where you’re sharing these! 🙂 Are these traditionally lemon flavour or can they be made in other varieties too?

This does look like a fun, lighter finish to a summer meal! Watch that sun, girl! It’s no fun going to the doc in your later years for those full body skin cancer scans. And I mean full body…ughhh! And lecture over, and thanks for coming to Throwback Thursday!!
