About the bake
A cake you can make in your bread machine! There is no fuss with this Ginger and Marmalade Cake recipe, it really is a case of adding all your ingredients together in your breadmaker and letting it do the work for you. You will need a little saucepan to melt your marmalade, butter, sugar and syrup together but apart from that there is minimal washing up to do.
Method
Step 1:
Remove the paddle from the baking pan in your bread machine. Line the base with baking parchment.
Step 2:
Place the butter, sugar, syrup and marmalade in a small pan and heat gently until the butter melts.
Step 3:
Mix the flour, baking powder and bicarbonate of soda and ginger in a mixing bowl. Add the chopped stem ginger if using.
Step 4:
Beat the milk and egg together and add to the dry ingredients along with the butter and sugar mixture.
Step 5:
Pour the mixture into the baking pan and place in the bread machine. Set to bake only mode and set the timer for 45 minutes.
Step 6:
The cake should be risen and just firm to the touch. Turn out and allow to cool.

Recipe Reviews
Kelly from the isle of Man. 2 lb loaf tin lined 150 fan 1 hr conventional reduce milk to 140ml turned out good . Next time might try treacle instead of marmalade ?
Thanks for this recipe! I baked it a conventional oven. Turned out great, everybody loved it and I'll definitely make it again.
I cooked it on 180 for about 50 minutes.
Can this be done in the oven (conventional) ?
