This is our regular dessert made with the ingredients I usually have at home.

The baking temperature and time is an estimate, so adjust according to your oven.
Leave to rest at least for 2 to 3 days and you will have a very moist castella.
When you slice, moisten your knife for every slice and you will have clean castella slices. Recipe by Raburimei

Steps

1

Warm the milk and mix in the honey.
2

Combine eggs and sugar in a bowl and whisk.
3

When you can draw S on the surface with the mixture, it is ready.
4

Add Step 1 and vegetable oil and mix well.
5

Fold in the strong flour and mix gently.
6

Pour the batter into a mould and bake at 340F/170C for 10 minutes, then reduce the heat to 150C. Bake for an additional 40 to 45 minutes.
7

After baking, take it out of the oven and remove the castella from the mould quickly while it's still hot.
8

Cover the surface with cling film. Stretch the cling film tightly to avoid wrinkling.
9

Flip over and wrap the castella with cling film. Leave to rest on a flat surface with the top flipped down to cool. Put the castella in the fridge to rest (for 2 to 3 days if possible).
10

To slice, first slowly peel off the cling film without damaging the surface.
11

Cut off 1 cm along the edge and then cut in half. (For every slice, moisten your knife with a wet tea towel.)
12

Slice as thickly as you like and serve.
13

Use this mould made with newspaper and you will have an authentic form of castella.
