This week’s Tuesdays with Dorie recipe is Custardy Apple Kale Cake. It is a hybrid sweet-savoury cake, and as Dorie says, is like an omelette but more elegant.
The cake contains apples, kale, cheese, eggs, flour and salt and pepper. I may have been a little skeptical (cue savoury muffins -yuk), but this cake is delicious.
I kept half and gave half to the neighbours. My half made a delicious lunch with boiled egg and tomato over a few days.

Oh that looks delicious...I bet your neighbor is really happy to be your neighbor! I'm going to see how it freezes as I kept half out and cut the other half in four slices to freeze. The taste reminded me of a quiche in disguise...and I do love quiche. Yours looks so nice and full and fluffy. Great job. And I still love that blue plate. :-)
ReplyDeleteIt was just like a quiche - and so delicious.
DeleteDefinitely a great lunch food! Your looks fabulous!
ReplyDeleteThanks Mardi. I was surprised at how much I liked this one.
DeleteIt sure looks and sounds delicious! Looks like a lot of kale!
ReplyDeleteThanks Judy. When I measured out the cups, it’s hard to know what is “accurate” with springy green leaves, but it all worked out.
DeleteWow this looks amazing - I love a bit of sweet with a savoury dish so this seems perfect for me - will have to check out this cookbook if just for this recipe
ReplyDeleteThanks Johanna -it is so good, and is a vegetarian recipe too.
DeleteThis was a surprise! We enjoyed it for lunch as well...so glad you liked it! (Kim)
ReplyDeleteKim, I agree! When someone mentions kale, it is not something I am drawn to, but this was so good.
DeleteYum! Great idea to throw in an egg (so perfectly cooked) and tomato on the side.
ReplyDeleteThank you! The egg did not behave when I peeled it, but I decided to go with a slice of (imperfect) real life.
Deletethat looks really incredible! perfectly kale-y and cheesy!
