Pumpkin Seed Sour Cream Cake with Meringue Topping

For the pumpkin seed sour cream cake, knead butter, sugar, egg, flour, vanilla sugar, baking powder and pumpkin seeds for the dough. Form into a ball, wrap in aluminum foil and let rest in the refrigerator for 1 hour. Grease a springform pan (26 cm diameter). Roll out 2/3 of the dough and line the bottom of the springform pan with the dough. Roll out the remaining dough and line the edge of the mold with it, pressing it well against the mold.

For the sour cream, wash the lemon hot, rub dry, and thinly grate the zest. Cut the lemon in half and squeeze out the juice. Stir the curd, sugar, cream pudding, egg yolks, vanilla sugar, milk, sour cream, milk and pumpkin seed oil to a cream. Mix the juice of the lemon into the sour cream. Pour the cream on the dough base. Bake the cake in the oven for 45 minutes at 175-200 °C top and bottom heat.

In the meantime, for the meringue, beat the egg whites with the sugar until stiff, fold in 1 tsp grated lemon zest. Spread the meringue mixture on the surface of the cake and make light peaks. Bake the cake again in the oven at the same temperature for 15 minutes. If necessary, cover with aluminum foil halfway through the baking time to prevent the meringue from darkening. Remove from the tube and let cool in the springform pan.
