Dutch butter cake, known as “boterkoek,” is a beloved traditional dessert hailing from the Netherlands, deeply rooted in the country’s baking heritage. Renowned for its rich, buttery flavor, it is made using simple ingredients such as butter, sugar, and flour. You can find my recipe for Traditional Gluten-Free Dutch Butter Cake (Boterkoek) here.
In the Netherlands, butter cake is typically served in generous slices and is often enjoyed with coffee or tea during social gatherings and celebrations. Its popularity shines at birthdays and festive events, showcasing its cultural importance and comforting essence.
This recipe is designed for a 22 cm cake tin or four small 10 cm tins, like tarte tatin tins.
When stored in an airtight container, butter cake remains fresh outside the fridge for approximately 5 to 7 days and can be kept in the freezer for up to 3 months.
