A flippantly spiced loaf cake topped with a biscoff buttercream frosting, and much more biscoff on high for one of the best biscoff loaf cake ever.
Biscoff Bakes
Relating to baking with Biscoff, everyone knows I’m utterly totally obsessed and I’ve no disgrace about this. I am keen on it, I am keen on the caramelised biscuit flavour of HEAVEN and I’ve made so many biscoff bakes to date.
I’ve not less than 25 Biscoff recipes revealed at this level, it’s a shock I don’t have shares within the firm, however hey ho. Actually, my biscoff brownies are at all times a scrumptious bake, my biscoff cheesecake is the preferred recipe I’ve ever revealed, and much more lately my biscoff rolls are an habit of mine.
Biscoff, also referred to as speculoos, is available in a biscuit and unfold kind and I simply like to marry it into so many alternative issues I can within the baking world. For this one, after numerous requests, I’m lastly doing my model of a biscoff loaf cake.
Loaf Truffles
Loaf desserts for me have at all times been one of the vital in style issues I can put up. Actually, you all love a loaf cake and I had no concept that they might be so in style, however I’m not complaining. There’s something that is really easy a few loaf cake and I simply adore it
I at all times use the identical 2lb loaf tin once I make my loaf desserts as out of all the bakeware, essentially the most unreliable product is a loaf tin. I’ve genuinely purchased 15 of them now, all classed as a 2lb/900g loaf tin, and they’re extremely inconsistent.
That is the loaf tin I take advantage of in all of my loaf tin bakes. Due to this fact, the final rule for loaf desserts is to solely fill a loaf tin 2/3 full, in order that it doesn’t over circulate. If you happen to ever have spare combine, you can also make cupcakes (bake at 160ºc for 20 minutes) so that you don’t waste any combination.
The Cake
Relating to the cake, it’s a easy sponge combine that I’ve determined to alter up ever so barely on this cake and add a little bit flavour. That is totally optionally available, as my different biscoff desserts don’t have this, however I went for the concept of the traditional speculoos spices.
- Butter – as a result of this can be a cake sponge, you need to use a baking unfold, or unsalted butter, each work nicely
- Sugar – I used mild brown gentle sugar to stay with the biscoff concept, a little bit little bit of pure caramel
- Eggs – I at all times use medium eggs in my bakes so I’ve used 4 medium. If utilizing massive, three might be nearer
- Flour – self elevating flour as at all times for desserts. If you happen to don’t have it you can also make your individual by mixing 2 degree tsps of baking powder in to 150g of plain flour and mixing nicely earlier than utilizing in a recipe (the usual ratio)
- Spices – I used a small quantity of cinnamon, ginger and nutmeg. These are optionally available, or you need to use kind of of no matter you need.
The Frosting
The frosting is a straightforward biscoff buttercream, as I didn’t wish to mess with this half. I wished a thick and scrumptious frosting to pipe onto my cake, and this biscoff buttercream is strictly that.
Butter – for this, you wish to use a block butter and never a margarine, or baking unfold, in any other case it’ll be too gentle.
Sugar – I take advantage of icing sugar (also referred to as confectioners sugar) in different places
Biscoff – the sweetness that’s. I take advantage of the graceful biscoff unfold as then nothing will clog the piping tip, however in case you are simply slathering the frosting on then the crunchy one does additionally work.
Ornament
For the ornament, I made a decision I’d go pretty commonplace in relation to a loaf cake as I believe there are solely so some ways that you could beautify a loaf cake.
I used my favorite second closed star piping tip with my favorite massive piping luggage to pipe a ‘rope’ look onto my loaf cake, after which used my small piping luggage to drizzle on some melted biscoff unfold (which I had melted within the microwave).
Then, I used some entire biscoff biscuits to put onto the highest and crushed over some biscuits as nicely. The biscuits will go gentle as soon as they’re out of the packet which is totally regular, however in the event you hate it, I’d depart them off till the final minute.
