Dutch Spiced Breakfast Cake (Ontbijtkoek)
Ontbijtkoek, or Dutch Spiced Breakfast Cake, is a moist, gently spiced cake that comes together quickly. It's built from self-raising flour, dark brown sugar, milk, and warming spices like ginger and cardamom. The batter is mixed with warm milk, then baked until a cake tester comes out clean. Serve it sliced for breakfast or with a cup of coffee.
