Time 1h5m

Yield 1 cake, 12-14 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

10 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature plus more for the pan
1 cup cake flour, sifted
2 tablespoons cake flour, sifted plus more for the pan
1 1/3 cups lyle's golden syrup, Steen's cane syrup or dark corn syrup
1/4 cup packed dark brown sugar
1 1/2 tablespoons orange marmalade
2/3 cup milk
2 eggs
1 cup whole wheat flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
3 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
confectioners' sugar, for garnish

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 325°. Grease bottom and sides of an 8" x 8" metal baking pan with butter and line bottom of pan with parchment paper. Grease parchment paper with butter and dust paper and sides of pan with a little cake flour. Heat 8 tablespoons butter, golden syrup, brown sugar, and marmalade in a 2-qt. saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring often, until syrup thins and sugar dissolves, about 5 minutes; let cool for 10 minutes. Whisk in the milk and eggs; set syrup mixture aside.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together cake flour, whole wheat flour, baking powder, cinnamon, ginger, baking soda, and salt. Add reserved syrup mixture and whisk until just combined. Pour batter into reserved baking pan. Bake until a toothpick inserted into center of cake comes out clean, about 50 minutes.
  • Transfer cake to a rack and let cool for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, heat remaining butter along with sugar and lemon juice in a 1-qt. saucepan over medium heat and cook, stirring often, until sugar dissolves, about 3 minutes. Using a pastry brush, brush half the lemon syrup over top of cake. Invert cake onto cooling rack, discard parchment, and brush the remaining lemon syrup on bottom and sides of cake. Invert the cake onto a serving stand and wrap in plastic wrap; let cool completely. The cake tastes better the day after baking and will keep for up to 4 days. To serve, cut cake into squares and sprinkle with confectioners' sugar.

ENGLISH ORANGE CAKE



English Orange Cake image

This is one of my favorite cakes to make. I originally got it from the newsletter of author Elizabeth Peters/Barbara Michaels. Not sure where she got it. I originally made it because I had never seen a recipe like it. It makes a dense and moist cake that is absolutely delicious!

STAFFORDSHIRE OATCAKES - TRADITIONAL ENGLISH HOTCAKES - PANCAKES



Staffordshire Oatcakes - Traditional English Hotcakes - Pancakes image

Delicious light pancakes made with oats and yeast - traditionally from the Midlands region in England, in particular the county of Staffordshire. The Potteries, an area that is the birthplace of many famous people including Arnold Bennett, Sir Stanley Matthews, Reginald Mitchell, Captain Edward Smith of the Titanic, Josiah Wedgwood, and more recently Robbie Williams.......but just as important to the Potteries as Royal Doulton, Wedgwood etc., are Staffordshire Oatcakes. Once only eaten locally, the Staffordshire Oatcake has grown steadily in popularity over recent years. The traditional filling would be practically any combination of ingredients from an 'all-day breakfast' but anything goes these days. Chicken curry, chilli con carne, scrambled eggs, smoked salmon and coronation chicken are now quite the norm amongst the oatcake avant-garde, as well as golden syrup, honey, jam and cream.

Time 1h6m

Yield 6 large oatcakes, 3-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

150 g fine oatmeal
150 g wholemeal flour
300 ml milk
300 ml water
7 g sachet quick-rising yeast
1 teaspoon sugar
salt

Steps:

  • Pour the milk and water in a saucepan and warm gently on the hob. This is just to create good conditions for the yeast when the batter is mixed so, as always, keep it below 30°C.
  • Add all of the dry ingredients to a bowl and mix together before starting to whisk in all of the warm milk and water. I was looking to get a reasonably thin batter and 600ml did the trick on this occasion. Of course, add less or more milk and water as the situation dictates. Once the batter is mixed, cover with plastic wrap and leave in a warm room for about an hour, allowing the yeast to make the batter nice and bubbly.
  • When it's ready, give the batter a gentle stir, smear a little butter or oil on a hot, non-stick skillet and add enough of the batter to thinly coat the bottom. Cook on one side until golden (about 3 minutes) and gently flip over and cook the other side for another couple of minutes.
  • Note: As oatcakes contain less flour, and wholemeal flour at that, they contain less gluten and will be more prone to tear. I'm guessing this is why people bulk them up with plain flour, but it's by no means a problem, it just means a gentler hand is required. No vigorous skillet-shaking.
  • This batter will yield about 6 large oatcakes. Don't just stick to savoury fillings, either. Fruit, berries, crème fraîche, syrup, ice cream are all brilliant with these pancakes.
