Raspberry and Almond Cake

Step 1

Pre-heat the oven to 180°C/Fan160°C/Gas mark 4. Grease a 20Cm (8”) loose-bottomed cake tin and line the base with parchment paper.

Step 2

Put the margarine spread, 175g Tate & Lyle Golden Caster Sugar, eggs, orange zest and flour into a large bowl with the ground almonds and vanilla extract. Using an electric mixer, beat together until smooth and creamy. With a rubber spatula gently fold in the raspberries.

Step 3

Turn into the tin and carefully level. Scatter over the flaked almonds and bake for 45-50 minutes. Test with a skewer, if it comes out clean then remove from the oven. Leave the cake to cool for 20 minutes before removing from the tin.

Step 4

Dust with Tate & Lyle Icing Sugar before serving.

  1. Gorgeous cake. Works well as an all in one. I use frozen raspberries and dot teaspoons of lemon curd over the cake which I then swirl slightly into the mixture. I use almond essence as I love the taste of almonds.

Good job, now enjoy!
