Equipment

Ingredients

  • 50 g caster sugar
  • 50 g vegan margarine
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 25 g ground almonds
  • 8 g sachet of arrowroot
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 10 tsp soya milk
  • 75 g self raising flour
  • 4 tbsp jam
Metric - Ounces

Instructions

  • In a microwave-safe cereal bowl, cream together the margarine and sugar.
  • Mix in all the other ingredients except the jam until smooth, then level off.
  • Microwave on high for 2 – 3 minutes, depending on how good your microwave is – you want it to be just set. If you overcook it, it’ll go dry and stiff as it cools.
  • When it seems just set on top, spoon the jam on top and return to the microwave for 1-2 minutes until the jam just bubbles.
  • Allow to cool a little so it doesn't burn anyone.

Notes

Raspberry is a great flavour to pair with almonds, but any jam will work. How about blueberry, apricot or strawberry jam?
