Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

Notes about this recipe

  • Indio32 on August 29, 2021

    It's the late summer Bank Holiday weekend here in the UK so thought I'd bake a sweet treat to go with an afternoon cup of tea. Changed the recipe ingredients to make a 15cm (6") cake tin size down from a 20cm (8") one ie 5 slices. Also used strawberry jam rather than raspberry which nobody here particularly likes. Finally added some whipped cream to the jam layer (needed using up) which added a bit of decadence to it. Left the cooking time the same.... 20 mins @ 180c. Very happy with the results. Moist & light. Used the kitchenAid stand mixer as its been sat on the kitchen counter for the last 18 months having only been used 3 times ??. Will make by hand next time to see if it makes a difference.
