Dulce De Leche Nectarine Cake

DifficultyBeginner
We are running with a new combination of dulce de leche and nectarines as they are now in season. How you choose to combine them is entirely up to you, from simply eating alone with dulce de leche or by making this delicious cake and drizzling dulce de leche all over it. This cake is fun to make and full of flavour with a soft and light interior. Great for those hot summer days!

Adds eggs one at a time while continuing to mix, then add salt, apricot conserve, vanilla and lemon zest.

Sift the flour with the baking powder before adding it to the egg mixture.

6

Add half of the nectarines that have been sitting in the lemon juice to your cake batter and mix gentle with a spatula.

7

Use a 24cm round tin covered in baking paper and sprinkled lightly with flour, this will prevent the batter from sticking to the tin. Pour the cake batter into the baking tin, level the mixture and place the remaining nectarines on top in any desired look or combination.

Bake for 50-60 minutes. You will know the cake is cooked through when you pierce it with a skewer in the centre and the skewer comes out clean and dry.
