Poppyseed cake that is moist & delicious!
Today is my dad’s birthday and he loves Poppyseed cake. I’ve never made one before so I thought this would be the perfect time and a nice surprise for when we visit. This recipe is simple to make and it bakes up beautifully! I hope he enjoys…Happy Birthday Dad 🙂
Poppyseed cake, a classic European dessert, offers a unique and delightful flavor profile that combines the sweetness of cake with the subtle crunch and nutty taste of poppy seeds. Often enjoyed with a dusting of powdered sugar or a drizzle of glaze, this cake is a perfect treat for any occasion.

3 C flour
1/4 tsp. salt
1 1/2 tsp. baking soda

I CAN'T FIND POPPYSEED FILLING. PLEASE HELP. WHERE SHOULD I LOOK FOR IT?
I get mine at Walmart in the baking aisle 🙂
Yay
LOVE ALL YOUR RECIPES. THEY ARE EASY TO MAKE AND VERY DELICIOUS. I WAS WONDERING CAN WE USE JUST POPPYSEEDS INSTEAD OF POPPYSEED FILLING? IF YES HOW MUCH? THANKS.
I never have, but I'm sure you can. I wouldn't use more then 1 C though or it may be overpowering 🙂
My mum made a great poppyseed cake using the seeds. She also used sour cream and almond flavor vanilla extract….it has always been a Christmas favorite in our family. The batter was really stiff and you had to make it with an electric mixer
Sounds delicious Anna-maria!
That looks delicious. I definitely need the picture of the Poppyseed filling. Thanks so much for sharing at Whimsy Wednesdays.
This looks awesome!
