Equipment
- 1 electric mixer
- 1 20cm round cake pan
- 1 mixing bowl
- 1 wire rack
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180 degrees C. Butter the base of a 20cm round cake pan (I used a bigger one in the pic and the cake was a little on the shallow side).
- Cream the butter and sugar together using an electric mixer. Add the egg and beat well.
- Sift the flour and add half to the mixing bowl with half the milk and beat on a low speed until combined. Repeat with remaining flour and milk and beat until just smooth.
- Pour the mixture into prepared pan and bake for 20-25 minutes until a skewer inserted into the centre of the cake comes out clean.
- Cool in pan for 5 minutes then turn onto a wire rack and remove paper. Reverse cake so the top is uppermost.
- While the cake is still hot, spread with butter and sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar.
