Gluten Free Marmalade Cake

Ingredients

For the cake

  • 225g gluten free plain flour
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 tsp bicarbonate of soda
  • 4 tbsp golden syrup
  • 3 tbsp marmalade
  • 50g soft brown sugar
  • 115g dairy free spread
  • 1 orange juice and zest is needed
  • 140ml dairy free milk
  • 1 egg

For the icing

  • 300g icing sugar
  • 1 orange juice and zest

Instructions

  • Line a 2lb loaf tin (standard size) with greaseproof/parchment paper.
  • Preheat the oven to about 160C.
  • In a mixing bowl sift in your gluten free flour, cinnamon and bicarbonate of soda. Put to one side.
  • Gently melt in a saucepan your golden syrup, marmalade, soft brown sugar and dairy free spread.
  • Remove your saucepan from the heat and add the juice of one orange. (my orange was medium size if that helps!)
  • Beat together your egg and dairy free milk in a jug.
  • Add your milk and eggs to your flour, bicarb and cinnamon. Mix thoroughly and then add your syrup mixture too. Continue to mix until fully combined.
  • Add the zest of one orange and mix once more.
  • Pour your mixture into the loaf tin and bake in the oven for around 45 - 50 minutes (until golden and a skewer comes out clean).
  • Allow to cool completely in the tin before removing and icing.
  • For the icing place your icing sugar into a bowl and mix in your orange juice. Keep adding your juice until you have a nice smooth glace icing.
  • Spoon over your cake, allow it to drizzle down the sides, it doesn't matter!
  • Finish off with some fresh orange zest on top.
  • Enjoy!
