Name: Clotted Cream Cakes
Cook time: 30 min
Yield: Makes 8 individual cakes
Ingredients: 2 Large Eggs ( room temp); 225g Golden Caster Sugar; 2 Zest of Unwaxed Lemons; 255g Cornish Rodda's Clotted Cream – room temp; 1/4tsp Salt; 225g either Plain or Cotswold Flour Heat Treated Flour; 2tsp Baking Powder; 20+ Fresh Blueberry; 20+ Fresh Raspberry

Butter for greasing

I used a x8 mini loaf/financier tins
Or you could use an 8” round cake tin

Method

Preheat the oven to 180°C and lightly grease the loaf tins, or line and grease your cake tin.
Zest your lemons
Put the eggs, sugar, and lemon zest into a large bowl, using an electric whisk or mixer, whisk well until they are thickened and lighter in colour.
Beat the clotted cream until smooth, and gently stir into the egg/sugar mixture with the salt.
Sift the flour/baking powder into the bowl and carefully fold this into the mixture. And fold until thoroughly combine.
Place a diagonal line of fruit into the base of each loaf tin.
Divide the mixture equally into each tin.
Add another diagonal line of fruit to sit on top of the mixture.
Bake in the preheated oven for approx. 30mins ( 45-50 for a cake tin), until the cake is a good golden brown and firm, and a cocktail stick inserted into the centre comes out clean.
Leave for 5 mins to firm up, then carefully remove from the tin, and leave to cool completely on a wire rack.
