PastaFlora

PastaFlora is a cake , more on the scone side, with jam on top......

Ingredients:

1 cup Butter

1 ½ cup Sugar

3 cup Flour

3 Eggs

3 teaspoon Baking Powder

Vanilla

Orange zest

4 tablespoon Apricot Jam

Mix above ingredient (except the jam).

The consistency of the mix is more like a sticky dough than a cake.

Take a handful of dough, leave it aside & put the rest in greased baking tray.
The tray used is 25cm diametre. Flatten the top with the spatula.

Dilute the apricot jam with a teaspoon of water (or a bit of Rum).

Spread the jam on the cake.

With the remaining dough, add a bit of flour to the dough till it isnt sticky. Take a piece & roll it into long thin rope.

 Top the jam with the thin rope in a crisscross way.

Bake in a medium hot oven (gas mark 6) for 35-30 minutes. Let it cool.

When cutting the pieces, cut them between the rope.

 You will have a piece of cake with an “+” of dough on top of the jam.

Sahtein!
