This is one of the most traditional, recognisable cakes in Hungary. It’s a simple and very rustic cake, a true home baker’s dessert. The batter is really just a vehicle, so any stone fruit like peaches, apricots, nectarines, or even cherries work perfectly here. Just make sure you’re using fruit in the peak of its season and especially any fruit that’s gotten a little overly ripe.

Serves 6 - 8
