Simple Semolina Cake
Preparation:

Biscuit:

  1. First, make a biscuit. Beat the eggs with sugar until you get a foamy mixture, then add the other ingredients from the description and beat again.

  2. Let the mixture stand for the semolina to soften for about 15 minutes, and stir occasionally. Coat the pan with a little oil and flour so that the mixture does not stick, then spread the mixture.

  3. Bake the biscuit in a preheated oven at 180 C ° for 25 – 30 minutes

Syrup for Cake:

  1. Put sugar and water in a small, deep bowl and add lemon juice.(optional if you don't have it). Boil the syrup for about 10 minutes on a slightly moderate heat.

  2. Cut the finished cake into cubes and pour lukewarm syrup over it.

  3. You can decorate it with coconut flour or coarsely chopped walnuts. You can also decorate with berries or raspberries, as you wish. Serve cake cold. Buon appetito!


NOTE: If you like a less sweet cake, you can comfortably reduce the amount of syrup by about 80 g sugar less or 1 cup. You can certainly replace the sugar with stevia according to the instructions on the box. The rest of cake put in fridge.

I have put the cake in a slightly bigger pan 40 × 25 cm, also I have put less of sugar by 1 cup. The cake is baked at 180 °C with a fan for about 20 minutes. The semolina cake is a simple soft cake, it is very easy to prepare! The sweetness of the cake is just right for my taste!
