Categories     Sandwich     Cheese

Number Of Ingredients 10

-- Cooking spray
2 eggs
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 cup butter, melted
2 cups Bisquick
1/2 cup sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 cup Grana Padano cheese
1/2 cup milk (optional)
-- About 1 tablespoon each white and black sesame seeds, for garnish

Steps:

  • Instructions: Preheat the oven to 350°. Lightly coat a round, nonstick cake pan with cooking spray. If you don't have a nonstick pan, line the pan with wax or parchment paper. Mix eggs, sour cream and butter in a medium bowl. In a separate bowl, combine the Bisquick, sugar, baking powder and cheese. Slowly mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, half a cup at a time. It should be the consistency of a heavy pancake batter. (If the dough is too thick, add milk. But if done correctly, no milk will be needed and the cake will be lighter and more springy.) Pour batter into cake pan. Combine the sesame seeds and sprinkle over the top. Bake for 25 minutes or until toothpick inserted comes out clean. Remove, let cool and serve at room temperature.

SALVADORAN QUESADILLA (SWEET BREAKFAST CAKE, GLUTEN FREE)



Salvadoran Quesadilla (Sweet Breakfast Cake, Gluten Free) image

Posted for ZWT7 Central & South America. "Don't expect cheese and tortillas. Instead, think poundcake. Think happy mornings, popping a few too many quesadillas in your mouth. In El Salvador they eat rich, buttery quesadillas in the morning with a big cup of coffee and I suggest you do the same. You'll love the slight crunch of the sesame seeds in combination with the sweet/salty cake." From, globaltableadventure.com.
