English Translation

Caraway loaf is a traditional tea-time cake cake, simple and quick to make that's spiced simply with whole caraway seeds. I remember my grandmother making these and thought it important to preserve a family recipe.

Ingredients:

450g (1 lb) plain flour
1 tsp baking powder
75g (2 1/2 oz) butter
30g (2 oz) sugar
15g (1/2 oz) caraway seeds
50g (1 3/4 oz) ground almonds
300ml (1 1/4 cups) milk
a little salt

Method:

Sift together the flour and baking powder into a bowl. Mix in the ground almonds and rub in the butter.

Add all the remaining dry ingredients, moisten with the milk then mix until light.

Transfer the batter into a grease cake tin then transfer to a moderately hot oven (about 175ºC) and bake for about 1 hour.

Allow to cool in the tin for 10 minutes then turn out onto a wire rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.
