Album 'Fur and Gold' by Bat For Lashes
I've eaten so much today.
This wasn't breakfast, it was part of lunch!
Oven 200°C
4 eggs
200g sugar
1 tsp almond essence
1 tsp strawberry essence
whisk
200g soft butter
whisk in the mixture
180g wholemeal self raising flour
100g ground almonds
1 tsp baking powder
100g glace cherries chopped in quarters
fold in
Bake for 50 minutes
I had to get a second picture in, just noticed the cherry smiling in the first picture looks a bit bruised.
This album is getting a bit depressing...need something more upbeat tonight.
I can always rely on Florence :)
So when cake has cooled down, cut off the top and cover in cream, flaked almonds and fresh cherries.
I entered this cake in the Tesco Real Food Challenge:
