Hearty Vegetable cake

• Preheat the oven to 175 degrees, grease the baking pan and flour
• Wash and grate the carrots. Peel and dice the onion. Fry the bacon with paprika powder. Remove the bacon and braise the onion in the same fat until translucent.
• In a bowl, beat the butter (room temperature) and the eggs with a mixer until frothy. Add the self-raising flour and mix well. Add the cheese, season it with salt and pepper. Mix well again.
• Now divide the dough in two so that both parts have the same weight. In the first part, grated carrots are now added. In the second part the chopped spinach. Since the spinach contains a lot of moisture, it is advisable to squeeze it out before mixing it into the dough. Mix the bacon and onion into the bacon batter. Season both doughs again and season with nutmeg.

a little hint

• The dough is a bit viscous, it would be easier if you put the carrots and spinach under the dough with washed hands and mix them together.
• Now put the dough in the baking pan, the carrot dough first. Spread it smoothly and then form a small groove in the middle and in the elongated direction. First put the spinach batter in the gutter and then cover everything with it.
• Now put the baking pan in the preheated oven on the middle rack and bake there for 60 minutes. After the baking time, take the mold out of the oven and let it cool down because only then can you cut it well.
• It is a bit unusual but very tasty (I think) and I wish you a lot of fun while baking and a new taste experience afterwards. * You can eat it like that or add it to a meat dish.
