Coconut and Jam Sponge






Coconut and Jam Sponge







My sponge cake recipe with gluten-free jam and coconut is full of delicious nostalgia!

Ingredients
  • 4 eggs
  • 220g sugar
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 200g seedless raspberry jam
  • 220g self raising flour
  • 220g butter
  • dessicated coconut

Method

First, preheat your oven with gas 4. Start by skimming together 220 g butter and 220 g sugar until smooth.

Then, break 4 eggs one by one until they are well combined.

Sift 220g of self-raising flour and add 2 teaspoons of baking powder and mix until smooth.

Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper, my tray measuring 22 cm by 35 cm, and pour the dough.

Bake at gas mark 4 for 30 to 35 minutes or until a skewer comes out clean.

Let the sponge cool for 10 minutes, while the sponge is still hot, use a palette knife and spread the seedless raspberry jam on top. If your sponge cools too much or the jam is hard to spread, simply heat the jam in the microwave and spread out.

Sprinkle with desiccated coconut on top and serve with a hot vanilla cream. Happy Cooking Time.
