About this dish
An Eierkoek is a traditional Dutch confection consisting of a disk shaped, spongy cake made primarily from eggs, sugar, and flour. With a diameter between 10 and 20 cm, it is larger than most cookies, but its light, airy texture makes it less filling, despite the size. Eierkoeken are eaten as a snack or light lunch. The distinctively light and airy texture is achieved through extensive beating of eggs and sugar. Unlike many baked goods, eierkoeken contain no butter.
