Coca de llanda




Today I’m going to post one of my favourite cakes: the coca de llanda or boba, I think it’s a typical Valencia cake. When I was little, my grandmother cooked it every time her granddaughters and grandsons were in her house, so it’s her recipe I just add a bit of colour =D!!!

Ingredients (in cups of tea):

- 1 ½ cups of all-purpose flour
- ½ cup of milk
- 1 cup of sugar
- 3 eggs
- ½  of oil or butter
- 3 teaspoons of baking powder
- Grated lemon rind  
- A bit of red coloring

Directions: 

- Preheat oven to 350ºF (or 175ºC).
- In a big bowl, add the eggs and the sugar and beat until the sugar has mixed with the eggs.
- Add then the milk, the yogurt and the oil beating fast. Then, throw the flour carefully while beating and finally the baking powder, the grated lemon rind and the coloring
- Grease the cake tin with butter, add the mixture and put it into the oven around 30-40 minutes or until you prick the centre of the cake with a knife and it appears clean.


Enjoy it!!!

  1. Hello Irene!

    My name is Abby, and I am a student from the University of Iowa. Do you like to bake? If so, what is your favorite treat to bake? Baking is my favorite hobby. Currently I enjoy baking with pumpkin because it is fall. Last weekend, I made pumpkin muffins, and this weekend I hope to make pumpkin coffee cake, if I have time. (I will use this recipe: http://tastykitchen.com/blog/2011/10/pumpkin-coffee-cake/)

    I look forward to reading more of your blog posts!

  2. Hi Abby! I love to bake! It's become my passion and my favourite things to bake are pies and cakes but I really want to make some cupcakes it's just I don't find the proper time!

  3. Cupcakes can make for a long and somewhat tedious baking project, but they are very fun to bake and decorate, as well as share with friends and eat (of course!). What is your favorite type of cake/cupcake?

    I am addicted to reading food (primarily baking) blogs. What blogs do you follow, and what blogs are your favorite?
