Sakura (Cherry Blossom) Castella

Spring has come, so I wanted to make a Japanese sweet with cherry blossoms in mind. I added the preserved sakura leaves and blossoms in the basic castella batter.

Cooking instructions

* Step 1

Line the pound cake molds with parchment paper, avoiding wrinkles. Line the bottom with the salt preserved sakura blossoms and leaves, and sprinkle on 2 tablespoons of light brown sugar.

* Step 5

Sift the already sifted flour into the mixture, and mix with a rubber spatula. When the flour is no longer visible, fold gently from the bottom several times.

* Step 6

Pour the batter evenly into each mold. Lightly lift and drop the molds on a table to smooth out the surface.

* Step 7

Bake them for 25 minutes in the preheated oven at 160℃. When baked, turn them over on the parchment paper and take out from the molds.

* Step 8

Wrap tightly with plastic wrap as soon as possible, and leave them for 2 days at room temperature. You can eat it on the next day, but the most delicious timing would be two days later.
