This is what Easter looks like at our house! ciambella rustica is a savory Italian cake that somehow always ends up in the center of the table every Easter. I’m not even sure if it’s an appetizer, a snack, or a main course, but it’s always there, and everyone just cuts their own piece as they go.
This isn't a sweet cake; it’s a rustic, savory bread packed with Italian flavor: salami, mortadella, and provolone.
Grandmas all over Italy have their own family version of this recipe. I grew up watching my grandma "eye up" the batter until it felt right, but for this video, I’ve written everything down so you can get it perfect every time.
It’s a simple one-bowl recipe. Everything goes in, it gets a quick mix, and you’re ready to bake. If you want to bring a piece of a real Italian Easter to your table this year, this is the one.
