Time 3h20m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup margarine, softened
1 cup light brown sugar
4 eggs
1.8 cups self-rising flour
1 ⅓ cups golden raisins
1 cup dried currants
⅔ cup candied cherries - rinsed, dried and quartered
¼ cup candied mixed fruit peel, chopped
2 tablespoons grated lemon zest
2 teaspoons mixed spice
1 pound almond paste
2 tablespoons apricot jam
1 egg, beaten

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Grease and flour an 8 inch springform pan. Line the bottom and sides of pan with greased parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, cream together the margarine and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time. Beat in the flour. Stir in the golden raisins, currants, candied cherries, mixed fruit, lemon zest and mixed spice. Pour 1/2 of batter into prepared pan.
  • Divide almond paste into 3 equal portions. Roll out 1/3 of the almond paste to an 8 inch circle. Place the circle of almond paste on the cake batter in pan. Cover with remaining cake batter.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 2 1/2 hours, or until evenly brown and firm to the touch. If the cake is browning too quickly, cover with foil after an hour of baking. Let cool in pan for 10 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack and cool completely. Set oven to broil.
  • When the cake has cooled, brush the top with warmed apricot jam. Roll out 1/3 of the almond paste into an 8 inch circle and place on top of cake. Divide the remaining 1/3 of almond paste into 11 pieces and roll into balls. These represent the 11 Apostles (excluding Judas.) Brush the almond paste on top of cake with beaten egg. Arrange the 11 balls around the outside edge on the top of cake. Brush the balls lightly with egg.
  • Place cake under the broiler for 8 to 10 minutes, or until almond paste is golden brown.

Categories     Afternoon tea, Dessert, Treat

Time 3h

Yield Serves 10-12

Number Of Ingredients 14

225g sultanas
100g currants
50g mixed peel
2 lemons, 1 juiced and 2 zested
50ml orange juice
50ml brandy (optional)
225g butter, softened
225g light muscovado sugar
4 medium eggs
225g self-raising flour
100g glacé cherries, quartered
2 tsp mixed spice
500g yellow marzipan
1 tbsp apricot jam

Steps:

  • Put the sultanas, currants and mixed peel in a bowl with the lemon juice, orange juice, and brandy, if using. Mix well, cover and leave to soak overnight.
  • Heat the oven to 150C/130C fan/gas 2. Line the base and sides of a 20cm round cake tin with baking parchment.
  • Add the rest of the cake ingredients to the soaked fruit and stir until well combined. Spoon half of this mixture into the bottom of the cake tin and level it off so it's as flat as possible. Roll a third of the marzipan into a circle 20cm diameter and put it on the top. Gently add the rest of the mixture, levelling the surface again.
  • Bake for approximately 2½ hours until brown, well-risen and firm to the touch. A metal skewer should come out clean when inserted. Allow to cool for 20 mins in the tin and then turn out to cool on a wire rack.
  • Warm the apricot jam in a small saucepan and brush on the top of the cake. Roll out half of the remaining marzipan to the size of the top of the cake. Press it down firmly and push the edges down with your thumb to crimp it round the sides.
  • Roll the rest of the marzipan into 11 balls (these represent the Apostles). Place the balls evenly on top of the cake in a circle, sticking them down with a little dab of the jam. Gently blow torch the top of the cake until the balls are a light golden brown, alternatively put the whole cake under a hot grill until the marzipan turns a light golden colour.

TRADITIONAL BRITISH MOTHERING SUNDAY SIMNEL CAKE



Traditional British Mothering Sunday Simnel Cake image

A wonderul spiced & fruited cake which heralds the advent of Spring. I used to make one for my Mum every year, when I lived in England! Traditionally made to mark Mothering Sunday, this cake is also known as an Easter Cake; Simnel cake has a fascinating cultural heritage with roots that stretch back to the Romans and Athenians. In Britain, known as the Shrewsbury Simnel, it is simply made using white flour, fragrant spices and is generously studded with dried fruits and pungent peel. Like a Christmas cake, it is covered with pale sweet almond paste. The decoration is plain - eleven little balls of smooth paste which represent the apostles (omitting Judas). A specially baked simnel cake is a wonderful gift to take to your mother, for Mothering Sunday Tea Time. Decorate it with crystalised flowers and tie some yellow ribbon around the side.

Categories     Dessert

Time 2h

Yield 1 Simnel Cake, 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

400 g icing sugar, sifted
250 g ground almonds
1 large egg yolk, beaten lightly
3 -4 tablespoons orange juice
5 drops almond essence
250 g plain flour
1 pinch salt
1 teaspoon nutmeg
1 teaspoon cinnamon
280 g currants
250 g sultanas
110 g mixed peel
160 g butter
160 g caster sugar
3 large eggs
200 ml milk, to mix

Steps:

  • CHECK LIST: a sifter, nest of bowls, food processor or electric beater, spatula, wooden spoon, 24 cm round cake tin, baking paper, brown paper and twine, rolling pin, thin metal skewer.
  • STAGE 1.
  • To make your own almond paste you will need a food processor fitted with a steel blade. Don't be tempted to use store-bought almond paste because it contains lots of sugar and few almonds, it will turn to liquid under the grill.
  • Place icing sugar and almonds in food processor bowl. Process, slowly dripping in egg yolk, orange juice and almond essence. The mixture should form a pliable paste.
  • Set aside a small portion for balls with which to decorate the cake.
  • Roll out the remaining paste into 2 circles which are the approximate size of the tin. Set aside.
  • STAGE 2.
  • Preheat oven to 160°C/320°F.
  • Use a sturdy non-stick cake tub or line the buttered base with baking paper. As the baking period is long (1-1 1/2 hours), prevent the cake drying out by wrapping a double thickness of brown paper around the pan and securing it with twine.
  • Sift flour, salt and spices together, then stir in fruit and peel.
  • Cream butter and sugar thoroughly until light and creamy then beat in eggs one at a time, until the mixture is fluffy. (Reserve a drop of egg yolk for brushing over top layer of almond paste.).
  • Stir flour and fruit into creamed mixture (you may need to add a little milk to give the mixture a dropping consistency).
  • STAGE 3.
  • Place half the mixture into a greased and lined cake tin.
  • Place one pre-rolled round of almond paste over the top.
  • Cover with remaining cake mixture. Before baking the cake, give the pan of mixture a sharp tap on to a firm surface. This settles the mixture and prevents holes from forming in the cake.
  • Bake in the centre of the oven for 1-1 1/4 hours or until a thin metal skewer inserted in the centre of the cake comes out without a trace of stickiness.
  • Level the cake by placing a weighted plate on top of the cooked cake while it is still hot.
  • Turn out cake on to a wire rack after leaving it to settle in the cake tin for between 10 and 15 minutes. Peel off paper and leave to cool completely.
  • STAGE 4.
  • Cover the top of the cake with a second round of almond paste. Roll 11 small balls of paste and place evenly around the top of the cake. Brush the top with a little beaten egg and very lightly brown under the grill until the almond paste turns light golden brown.
  • Remove and leave to cool.

SIMNEL CAKE



Simnel Cake image

Simnel cake is an English tradition, formerly made by girls on Mothering Sunday (Mother's Day, in March in the UK), but now the cake has become an Easter tradition. It is usually decorated with a layer of marzipan, and 11 marzipan (almond paste)balls around the edge, to represent the apostles, (minus Judas Escariot, for obvious reasons). This recipe is from the April 2006 issue of Delicious magazine, and instead of 11 balls of marzipan it decorates the cake top with violets and marzipan eggs.

Categories     Dessert

Time 3h15m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 19

175 g butter, softened, plus extra for greasing
250 g plain flour, plus a little extra
1 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 unwaxed lemon, juice and zest of
100 g glace cherries, halved
50 g chopped mixed candied peel
175 g sultanas
175 raisins
125 g currants
175 g golden caster sugar (superfine sugar)
4 medium eggs, lightly beaten and brought to room temperature
3 tablespoons milk
icing sugar, to dust (confectioner's sugar)
200 g almond paste (marzipan)
yellow food coloring
350 g almond paste
1 tablespoon apricot jam, warmed
3 -4 fresh african violets

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 150 degrees Celsius Grease and line a 20 cm round deep cake tin with double thickness of baking (parchment) paper.
  • Sift flour, nutmeg, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt into a bowl. Stir in the zest, cherries, peel, sultanas, raisins, and currants.
  • Cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Gradually beat in the eggs, adding a little extra flour if the mixture begins to curdle. Add the flour and fruit mix and milk and mix to a soft dropping consistency. Spread just over half of the mixture in the tin.
  • On a surface dusted with icing sugar, roll out 200 g almond paste to a 19 cm circle. Place on top of the mixture in the tin. Spoon in the rest of the mixture. Level the top and make a slight dent in the centre. Bake for 2 3/4 hours, or until golden and a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean. Cool in the tin.
  • For the decoration, dust the work surface with icing sugar. Knead a little yellow colouring into 350 g almond paste, then cut off 50 g and set aside. Roll out the remainder into a 20 cm circle. Brush the top of the cake with the jam and put the almond paste on top. Crimp the edges.
  • Take the remaining almond paste and divide into 5 pieces. Dust your hands with icing sugar and roll each piece into an egg shape. Arrange on the cake with the violets.
