• Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (180°C) for 35–40 minutes, or until golden and a toothpick comes out clean.

4. Unmold & Serve:

• Allow to cool for 5 minutes only, then flip onto a serving plate while still warm so the caramel flows over the cake.

• Slice and serve warm or room temperature. Optional: dust with powdered sugar or serve with whipped cream.
