This marbled cherry and almond cake will go down a storm at any dinner party.
Serves 6-8
Takes 20 minutes to make and 1 - 1 1/4 hours to bake, plus cooling
1. Preheat the oven to 160°C/fan140°C/gas 3. Line the base and sides of a 900g loaf tin with baking paper.
2. Put the butter, sugar, eggs, vanilla, milk, flour and ground almonds into a mixing bowl and beat with an electric whisk for 2 minutes until well combined.
3. Spoon half the cake mixture into the prepared tin and spread level with the back of a spoon. Spoon over the red cherry conserve and spread nearly to the edges of the cake mixture. Spoon over the remaining cake mixture to cover. Scatter over the flaked almonds and bake for 1 hour-1 hour 15 minutes or until golden and a skewer inserted into the centre of the cake comes out clean.
