8 servings · prep 20 min · cook 40 min

Ingredients

• 200 g flour
• 150 g soft butter
• 120 g sugar
• 3 eggs
• 6 tbsp golden syrup
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 50 ml milk
• Custard: 500 ml milk, 4 yolks, 80 g sugar, 1 vanilla pod

Method

1. Pour 3 tbsp of syrup into the base of a buttered tin: it becomes the topping when you turn the cake out.
2. Beat the butter and sugar, add the eggs one at a time, then the rest of the syrup.
3. Fold in the flour, baking powder and milk without overworking.
4. Pour over the syrup and bake 40 min at 175 °C.

6. Turn the warm cake onto a deep dish and serve it swimming in custard.
