These small cakes, called queques, are flavored with a hint of citrus--lemon and orange. Have them for breakfast, tea, or as a pick-me-up with espresso. #portuguese #cake #minicake #baking #citrus
Zubereitungszeit ca. 45 MinutenVorbereitung ca. 15 MinutenKochzeit ca. 20 Minuten
Zutaten:
12 tablespoons (6 oz) unsalted butter (plus more for greasing the pans)
2/3 cup milk
1 tablespoon grated lemon zest
1 tablespoon grated orange zest
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1 large egg plus 1 large egg yolk (whisked)
1/4 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Arbeitsschritte:
Position the rack in the middle of the oven and crank the heat to 400°F (200°C). Brush two 12-well mini-muffin tins (1 3/4-by-7/8-inch) with butter. Set aside.
Heat the milk and butter in a small saucepan over low heat until the butter is melted. Remove the pan from the stove and let the mixture cool until warm.
In a large bowl, rub the lemon and orange zests into the sugar with your fingers until fragrant.
Dump in the flour, baking powder, and salt and whisk to combine.
Stir the egg, yolk, and vanilla into the warm milk mixture and then pour it into the flour mixture in several additions, stirring gently until the ingredients are just incorporated and the batter is smooth.
Spoon the batter into the prepared pans, three-quarters full. Bake until the cakes are well-risen and golden brown, 18 to 20 minutes.
Transfer the pans to a rack, cool for 5 minutes, and then pop out the mini cakes. Serve warm piled high in a napkin-lined basket or large cake stand.
