Everyone loves a teacake and when paired with cinnamon you can’t go wrong

Ingredients

Reduced fat oil spread

90 g

Caster sugar

½ cup(s), (110g)

Egg(s)

1 medium

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 180°C or 160°C fan-forced. Lightly spray a 20cm round cake tin with oil. Line base and side with baking paper.
  2. Using electric beaters, beat 75g spread, ½ cup (110g) sugar, egg and vanilla bean paste in a medium bowl until combined. Mix in flour and milk, alternately, until combined.
