Recipe View Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely. (10 minutes)

For an even richer flavor, use European-style butter with a higher fat content.
Room temperature eggs incorporate more easily into the batter, resulting in a smoother texture.
To prevent the cake from sticking, you can also line the loaf pan with parchment paper.
Botercake is delicious served warm or at room temperature. It pairs well with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
