Step 1

Preheat the oven to 190°C/370°F/Gas Mark 5 and grease a large baking sheet.

Step 2

Sift the flours and salt into a mixing bowl, then add the butter, using your fingertips to rub into the flour until you reach the breadcrumb stage.

Step 3

Add the Tate & Lyle Light Soft Brown Sugar, raisins and orange zest and mix with your fingers again.

Step 4

Add the egg and mix again with your hands. Now divide the mixture into eight roughly rolled balls - keep them knobbly or they won't be rock cakes - then place on the baking sheet.

Step 5

Bake in the oven for 15 to 20 minutes. Leave to cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
