Cooking Directions
Line a shallow baking tray measuring about 30x20, or 1 loaf tin measuring 24-28 em, with aluminium foil.
Grease the foil and dust it with flour. Keep ready. Preheat the oven.
Bake in medium hot oven for 40-50 minutes or until cooked when tested with a skewer.
The baking time is shorter when a tray is being used.
Cool the cake for 10 minutes before turning it out of the cake tin.
Brush with honey and decorated with peeled almonds.
If a shallow baking tray is used, turn the cake upside down into a large dish and cut into diagonal shapes and decorate each piece with half an almond.
