grandpas mustache

Grandpa's mustache is a great cake with a funny name, because at first glance, due to its shape, it really resembles a mustache. The cake consists of yeast dough, jam and a walnut filling with egg whites. You can use any jam – this time I opted for a sour cherry jam, which turned out great. For the filling, walnuts can be replaced by poppy seeds, hazelnuts or cacao. The cake is easy to prepare, and there will be more than enough for everybody. The recipe makes two "loaves" and a 34 x 20 cm baking tin. If you want it to be bigger, double the ingredients and use a bigger baking tray.

Grandpa's Mustache

  • Preparation time: 1 h 30 min
  • Difficulty:
  • Number of ingredients: 15

Ingredients:

  • 130 g pungent flour
  • 150 g plain flour
  • 80 ml warm milk
  • 60 g crystal sugar
  • 100 g melted and cooled butter
  • 2 egg yolks (size class M)
  • finely grated peel of one organic lemon
  • 4 g dry yeast
  • 50 g sour cream
  • 6 tablespoons cherry jam
  • 4 tablespoons ground walnuts
  • 2 egg whites
  • 120 g ground walnuts
  • 50 g granulated sugar
  • 1 packet rum sugar

Instructions:

1. Step

Preheat the oven to 170 °C (325 °F). Combine the dry ingredients and add the wet ingredients. Stir to combine. Sprinkle the working surface with a few tablespoons of flour, place the dough on it and knead it well with your hands. Divide it into two equal parts.

2. Step

Roll out a ball of dough on parchment paper into a rectangle 1 mm to 1.5 mm thick. Coat with three tablespoons of jam and sprinkle with two tablespoons of ground walnuts. Roll the dough lengthwise from both si- des towards the middle, leaving a 3 cm gap. You can roll it using the parchment paper. Once the dough is rolled, transfer it to the baking tray with the paper and cut off the excess paper on both sides. Repeat the process with the second part of the dough; cover the “loaves” and leave to rise in a warm spot while preparing the filling.

3. Step

Beat the egg whites with the sugar until thick and stiff. Using a spatula, stir in the ground walnuts. Transfer the filling into a piping bag and squeeze it into the empty space in the middle. Place the tray into the oven and bake for about 30-35 minutes.

4. Step

Once cooled, dust with powdered sugar and cut into slices.
