Steps

• Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
• In a separate large bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
• Beat in the eggs, one at a time, until well combined.
• Gradually add the flour mixture to the butter mixture, alternating with the milk. Mix until just combined.
• Stir in the chopped dill.
• Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
• Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
• Once the cake has cooled, spread the crème fraîche evenly over the top.
• Arrange the thinly sliced smoked salmon on top of the crème fraîche.
• Sprinkle the chopped dill over the smoked salmon.
• Slice and serve.

Tips

• Make sure the butter is softened before creaming it with the sugar to ensure a smooth batter.
• Use a serrated knife to easily slice the cake and smoked salmon.
