Marmalade Cake

“This sticky orange cake is a joy, and it’s simple to make. Even better, it contains mostly pantry ingredients, so is pretty cheap to make. ” ...

Ingredients:

200g unsalted butter (at room temperature, plus extra for greasing).

4 small oranges

4 tablespoons demerara sugar

200g golden caster sugar

6 heaped tablespoons fine-cut marmalade

4 large free-range eggs

200g self-raising flour

50g ground almonds

Serves

10 people

Prep Time

10 Min.

Cook Time

60 Min.

Directions:

  • 1

    Preheat the oven to 180ºC/gas 4. Grease the base and sides of a 23cm loose-bottomed cake tin.

  • 2

    Thinly slice 2 of the oranges. Sprinkle the base of the cake tin with demerara sugar, then arrange the orange slices over the base in a slightly overlapping layer.

  • 3

    Cream the butter and caster sugar until pale and fluffy, then beat in 3 heaped tablespoons of marmalade, followed by the eggs.

  • 4

    Fold in the flour, ground almonds and a pinch of sea salt. Finely grate in the zest from the remaining oranges, and squeeze in all the juice and fold through.

  • 5

    Carefully pour the cake batter into the tin. Place in the oven and bake for about 50 minutes, or until golden and firm to touch.

  • 6

    Remove from the oven and allow to stand for a few minutes. Very carefully, while it’s still slightly warm, turn out the cake onto a serving plate.

  • 7

    Prick holes in the cake with a skewer. Make a glaze by warming the rest of the marmalade in a pan with a little water. Spoon this over the cake.

  • 8

    Serve warm or at room temperature with yoghurt, cream or ice cream.
