Paleta de Leche Recipe — How to Make & Calories

Ingredients

• Paleta de Leche – 1 portion
• All-purpose flour – 250 g
• Granulated sugar – 200 g
• Butter – 150 g
• Eggs – 3 large
• Baking powder – 1 tsp

Steps

1. Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and prepare your baking dish by greasing it lightly.
2. Cream butter and sugar together until pale and fluffy, about 4 minutes in a stand mixer.
3. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then fold in the dry ingredients for Paleta de Leche with gentle strokes to avoid deflating the batter.
4. Pour into the prepared dish and level the top with a spatula.
5. Bake for 30–35 minutes until a skewer inserted in the center comes out clean. Check at 25 minutes to avoid over-baking.
6. Cool in the pan for 15 minutes, then transfer to a rack. Dust with powdered sugar or add the traditional topping before serving.
