GOLDEN SYRUP CAKE

GOLDEN SYRUP CAKE

Ingredients

1. 100g Butter
2. 50g Caster Sugar
3. 50g Soft Brown Sugar
4. 200g Golden Syrup
5. 200g Self-raising Flour
6. 1 Eggs
7. 150ml Milk
8. 2 tbsp Golden Syrup

Instructions

1. Pre-heat your oven to 160°c (140°c for a fan-assisted oven) and grease & line a 2lb loaf tin with grease-proof paper.
2. Place the butter, syrup and sugars into a medium pan and heat gently until the ingredients are just melted together, stirring occasionally. Once melted together, set aside and allow to cool for at least 10 minutes.
3. In a small bowl/jug, beat the milk and egg together. Set aside.
4. In a large bowl, sift the flour. Add the egg/milk mixture and the cooled syrup mixture and beat until combined and you have a lump free batter.
5. Pour the mixture into your pre-lined loaf tin.
6. Bake in your pre-heated oven for around 1 hour until golden on top and a skewer inserted comes out clean.
7. Leave to cool for 10 minutes before poking the cake all over with a skewer and spreading 2 tablespoons of golden syrup over the top.
8. Allow to cool completely before serving. For best results, leave the cake in the greaseproof lining & add a piece of extra greaseproof paper to the top, before wrapping in tin foil for a few days before serving. This will give a deeper flavour to the cake.
