Tips:

  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can result in a tough cake. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Spread the jam evenly over the batter: This will help to ensure that the jam is evenly distributed throughout the cake.
  • Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This is the best way to ensure that the cake is cooked through.
  • Let the cake cool completely before serving: This will help the jam to set and the cake to hold its shape.
