Background

This jam bundt cake is a lovely treat for friends and family. You can use any type of berry jam for the recipe - blackberries, blueberries, raspberries during the winter and strawberries during the Summer. For the Summer version use lemon zest instead of mixed spice. Perfect for afternoon tea or with your morning coffee! Decorate it according to occasion/season with fruits, icing, cream cheese or buttercream frosting.

Ingredients

3 large eggs
1 cup sugar
½ cup sunflower oil
1 cup yogurt ( with berries)
1 tsp vanilla extract
3 cups self-raising flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon mixed spice
½ cup seedless blackberry/raspberry/blueberry jam or spreadable fruit preserves

Instructions

Heat the oven to 190°C. Grease a medium bundt pan (not needed if it’s silicon).
Combine sugar and egg in a bowl until light and fluffy. Add the vanilla, yogurt and oil, then combine well.
In another bowl, mix the flour, baking powder and spices.
Add the flour mixture to the wet mixture and combine.
Spoon half of the batter into the prepared pan. Spoon the jam on top of the batter, then make swirls into the batter.
Top with remaining cake batter, spreading it out evenly.
Bake the cake for 50-55 minutes or until a skewer inserted in the centre comes out clean.
Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then turn it out onto a wire rack.
Let it cool completely, then decorate it.
If you want to glaze it, then mix half cup of icing sugar with one Tbsp milk and drizzle over the cake. Or you could frost it witch cream cheese, buttercream etc. Or just dust it with icing sugar and garnish with fresh berries.
