Method

1. Place the McDougall’s Plain Multi-Use Muffin & Cake Mix, spices and treacle into a mixing bowl. Select the whisk attachment.
2. Add oil, water and egg in a single liquid addition on slow speed over 1 minute; scrape down. Mix for 4 minutes on medium speed.
3. Finally mix for 1 minute on medium speed, whilst adding the fruit.
4. Scale off in a round 9” cake tin, ideally lined with greaseproof paper.
5. Sprinkle the almonds on top of the cake batter.
6. Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C for 50 - 60 minutes minutes, or until a skewer comes cleanly from the batter. (Oven temperatures are for guidelines only as appliances may vary).
