    That cake looks gorgeous Raven.
    I've made jam tarts today and managed to use up all the odds and sods of jam decluttering 5 jars from the fridge. Two threads in one, LOL!

    Carrot cake, apple tart, wholemeal loaf, and a second attempt at Gordon Ramsay's lemon treacle slices. Carrot cake and lemon slices in freezer :)

    In an earlier post I wrote that when making the lemon treacle slice again I wanted to do two tings

    1. Make the product less sweet, at the moment it is far to sweet for my taste. 2. Make the product that little bit firmer and easier to handle. In my original batch the slice was overly crumbly and came apart to quickly.
    I think I've cracked it. I stuck to the recipe but this time When I stirred the breadcrumbs,cream etc into the Golden Syrup and butter I let it sit for more than half an hour, stiring occasionally before I put it into the oven by doing this I think the breadcrumbs had time to soak up much more of the liquid type contents and I think that help to make it firmer. Also this time around the slices did not taste as sweet as before and again I'm assuming this is because the mixture had time to settle in.

    I suppose it is really a matter of not rushing[FONT=&quot]!

    and

    which I am working through.
    Still gotta work out liquid flour ratios so I end up with a dough to prove and not a wet dough needing flouring etc; but still these loaves are the nearest thing to Sourdough short of making actual sourdoughs via different methods.

    Hi I am after some help please, I have looked and looked and asked on 'quick questions thread. I am sure I saw a recipe on here for a kind of 'twink' oat tray bake. It had a layer of jam and sounded easy to make! I cannot remember what it was called, 'jamblie?or something like that. Does anyone know where the recipe is could they point me in the right direction? I am thinking I may have dreamt it!

    EDIT!! thanks to 'pipney jane' I have the recipe!! JAM CRUMBLIES
