DESSERTS

Glazed Orange Poppy Seed Cake Serves 8 125g butter, softened

¾ cup caster sugar

1 tablespoon finely grated orange rind

2 eggs

1 cup self raising flour

1/3 cup milk

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

¼cup poppy seeds Glaze

2 teaspoons orange zest ½ cup orange juice

½ cup caster sugar

1.Preheat oven to 150°C using the bake setting. Place wire rack on the middle shelf in the sunken position for the BT5300 and on the lower shelf in the sunken position for the BT4400.

2.Grease and line base of a 20cm cake tin.

3.Using an electric mixer, cream butter, sugar and rind until light and fluffy.

4.Add eggs one at a time, beating well between each addition.

5.Add flour and milk in two batches and mix until just combined. Fold through poppy seeds.

6.Place mixture into prepared tin and cook in oven for about 50 minutes or until cooked when tested with a skewer. If cake starts to brown too much before the inside is completely cooked, lay a piece of foil over the top of the cake, this will stop excessive browning.

7.Meanwhile combine the zest, orange juice and sugar in a small saucepan. Stir over a low heat until the sugar has dissolved; bring to the boil, simmer for 2 minutes.

8.Turn cake out onto a cooling tray with a baking tray underneath. Using a wooden skewer, poke several holes into the cake then pour the hot syrup over the hot cake.
