A simple but delicious cake recipe:

Light butter, for greasing breadcrumbs, for spreading.

In Westphalia, around Bielefeld, the Kastenpickert is at home. A bread made from earth apple flour dough, which is very juicy and should be eaten 24 h after baking, if possible. Instead of bread. With toppings of your choice (sweet or salty), also with butter and jam with hot coffee. Grate peeled, washed potatoes into a suitable bowl. Drain in a sieve on a baking dish. Collect potato water and starch. Boil water for 10 min. Stand to allow the maizena (cornstarch) to settle. Drain water from cornstarch. Add potato mixture and flour to the Maizena (cornstarch) form. Stir thoroughly. Stir yeast with the lukewarm water until smooth, mix into the dough. Add the eggs. Beat the dough until hearty. Season with salt.

Grease a 30 cm loaf pan with light butter and sprinkle with breadcrumbs. Pour the dough into it and let it rise with the lid closed for at least 40 minutes. Bake in the heated oven – middle shelf – for two hours at 175 °C (gas oven level 2), covering with aluminum foil after half an hour. After baking, turn out onto cake wire and cool.
