Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Grease a 8x12x2-inch baking dish. Line the greased pan with parchment baking paper, allowing 2 inches overhang on both ends.
- 2. Sift flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, cloves, ginger, nutmeg and allspice together into a large bowl. Stir in sugar. Make a well in the center, and add the egg, milk and butter. Using a wooden spoon, stir until batter is smooth. Spoon into prepared baking pan, and smooth the top. Evenly distribute walnuts on top.
- 3. Bake for 27 to 32 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pan for 5 minutes. Then run a butter knife along the edges so cake releases easily. Grab edges of the parchment on both sides of cake pan, and gently lift cake from pan. Remove parchment paper and place cake on cooling rack (top facing up) to cool completely. Cut into serving slices (standard is 6x4 rows), and serve slices with dollops of cream and honey (or golden syrup) drizzled on top.

[email protected]This cake was a bit dry, but the flavor was good. I think I might have overbaked it. I'll try making it again with a lower temperature and shorter baking time.

[email protected]This cake was easy to make and turned out great! The only thing I did differently was to use a different type of streusel topping. I used a combination of oats, flour, sugar, and butter, and it was delicious.
