Preheat the oven to 190°C. Grease a 26 cm springform pan or silicone mold and place it on a rack. In a bowl, beat the butter until light and fluffy, then beat in the eggs one at a time. Combine the flour with the baking powder and stir in. Now mix in the ham, cheese, onions, paprika, and spices well. Spread the batter in the pan and bake in the center of the oven for about 30 minutes. Let it cool on a rack. Tastes good both warm and cold. Perfect with a dip. Substitutions: Cooked ham or salami instead of the ham. Broccoli florets pre-cooked in salted water for 4 minutes instead of the ham. A small can of corn instead of the bell peppers. A bunch of spring onions instead of the onions. Cubes of feta cheese with herbs de Provence instead of Gouda.
