Method

  • step 1

    Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Butter a 25cm square or 20 x 30cm rectangular cake tin or baking dish.

  • step 2

    Beat the butter, sugar, flour, eggs and vanilla extract together until smooth. Spread the jam over the base of the tin, and dollop over the cake batter. Spread over evenly. Bake for 20-25 mins until the sponge is light golden and risen, and a skewer inserted into the middle comes back clean. Serve warm with custard, cream or ice cream.

I followed this recipe but instead of jam I used the sponge recipe to top roasted Rhubarb, it’s was delicious, I think this recipe could be used to top most fruit, plums, apples etc …. Lovely and so easy

I used a 25x25cm cake tin - it was ready in 25 mins and a was lovely golden colour on top. Love how quick and straightforward this was to make. Used dairy free spread, soft light brown sugar and sour cherry jam as these are the things I had in the house - worked out really well.

I made this today using gluten free self raising flour and a tablespoon extra of milk. I also used the recommended size tray and it cooked in 25 mins. I will make again.

Made (a half portion) of this in my air fryer, with Foil over it to stop it blackening 3× jam and was enough for 4.
