Ingredients
- 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 3 large eggs
- ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1½ tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ¼ tsp salt
- Optional:
- Powdered sugar for dusting
- Fresh berries or whipped cream for serving
Instructions
-
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch round or loaf pan and line with parchment if desired.
-
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and sweetened condensed milk until smooth.
-
Add melted butter and vanilla extract. Mix to combine.
-
In another bowl, whisk flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually fold dry ingredients into wet mixture until just combined—don’t overmix.
-
Pour batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top.
-
Bake for 35–45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
Dust with powdered sugar or serve with fresh fruit, if desired.
Notes
- For citrus flavor, add 1 tbsp lemon or orange zest.
- Swap ½ cup of flour with almond flour for a richer texture.
- Fold in chocolate chips, nuts, or coconut for variation.
- Drizzle with more condensed milk for a sticky-sweet top layer.
