  • 1 Lemon Rind & Juice
  • 1tsp baking powder
  • 12 ½g caster sugar
  • 250ml milkfull cream or low fat or buttermilk
  • 4oz raisins
  • 2-3 plums-chopped
  • 25g soft brown sugar
  • 50g. Raisins

Filling

  • Make the filling by mixing the melted fat, raisins, chopped plums, sugar & cinnamon and spread on top of the rolled dough. 
  • Brush around the edges of the dough with cold water to help seal the edges and roll the dough up loosely into a log shape, making sure it is even and well-shaped.
  • Using a sharp knife, cut the log into 7 slices and arrange it flat in the tin with one in the centre. 
  • Bake in your oven @ 200°C/gas mark 6 for 15-20 minutes until risen and golden.
