|
| 5 oz | Plain Flour | |
| 3 oz | Sugar | |
| 2 oz | Margarine | |
| Warm Milk | ||
| 1 | Egg | |
| 1 tsp | Treacle | |
| 1 tsp | Golden Syrup | |
| 1 tsp | Cinnamon | |
| 0.5 tsp | Bicarbonate of Soda | |
| a few | Almonds |
Mix the flour, bicarbonate of soda, cinnamon and sugar. Beat the egg and heat the margarine and golden syrup and treacle until a liquid. Add the eggs to the dry ingredients and mix, then add the margarine mixture and sufficient warm milk to form a soft dropping consistency. Note this is much softer than for almost all other cakes.
Take a greased tray for small cakes or buns and put a whole almond into each well. Half fill each well with the mixture.
Bake in a moderate oven for about 15 minutes.
