Dundee cake

300 degrees. Two small loaf pans or one round cake pan.

2/3 cup butter
7/8 cup brown sugar (I found this too sweet. Try 2/3 cup or maybe even 1/2 cup)
1/4 cup Seville orange marmalade
1 grated orange peel
3 large eggs
1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
400 grams sultana raisins (about 1 pound)
1/3 cup ground almonds
50 grams whole blanched almonds

I also added 1/2 tsp salt, and 1 tsp baking powder, though recipe didn't call for that

  • Cream butter and brown sugar. 
  • Add eggs and beat well.
  • Mix in marmalade and orange rind
  • Stir in raisins

Put into pans. Press almonds into top of cake.

I baked two small loaf pans for about 1 hour and 10 minutes. A round cake should take about 1 3/4 to 2 hours.
