Ciambella

3 eggs

300g sugar

1tsp vanilla extract

300g flour

300g fresh cream

2tsp baking powder

1tsp salt

 

Pre-heat the oven to 180 centigrade/ Gas Mark 4.

 

Butter a  ring-shaped baking tin.

 

Mix the eggs and sugar until they are light yellow and fluffy. Then mix in the baking powder gently, trying not to knock out to much of the air.

 

Add the cream gently and mix in well.

 

Then gently fold in the salt and flour, bit by bit, until completely mixed in and you have a smooth cake batter.

 

Pour the batter into the ring and bake for 40 minutes, test with a cake skewer, if it comes out clean with nothing stuck to it.

 

Cool for 10 minutes then turn out.
