Ingredients

  • 250 g Mascarpone (At room temperature)

  • 100 ml Whole milk (At room temperature)
  • 150 g All‑purpose flour (Sift with the leavening)

  • 10 g Baking powder (One 10 g packet)
  • 5 ml Vanilla extract or vanilla paste (About 1 teaspoon)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the ingredients

    Take the mascarpone, eggs and milk out of the refrigerator at least 30 minutes before starting so they are at room temperature.

    Time: PT10M

  2. Line the pan

    Place the reusable parchment paper in the loaf pan. If you use regular parchment, butter it lightly then flour it so it adheres well.

    Time: PT5M

  3. Mix mascarpone and powdered sugar

    Sift the powdered sugar into the bowl, add the mascarpone and whisk gently until you obtain a smooth cream.

    Time: PT5M

  4. Incorporate the eggs one by one

    Add the eggs one at a time, whisking vigorously between each addition to aerate the batter.

    Time: PT5M

  5. Add the vanilla

    Pour the extract (or paste) of vanilla and mix briefly.

    Time: PT2M

  6. Sift flour and leavening

    Sift the flour with the baking powder in another bowl.

    Time: PT3M

  7. Incorporate flour and milk

    Add the sifted flour and milk alternately (a ladle of milk, then a third of flour, etc.) mixing gently with the spatula until the batter is homogeneous and thick.

    Time: PT5M

  8. Fill the pan

    Pour the batter into the prepared pan, filling it three‑quarters full to leave room for rising.

    Time: PT2M

  9. Bake the cake

    Preheat the oven to 170 °C bottom heat. Bake the cake for 50 minutes, then activate the convection fan for an additional 5 minutes to brown the top.

    Time: PT55M

    Temperature: 170°C
