Ingredients:
Instructions:
- In a medium mixing bowl, use a hand mixer or wooden spoon to cream together the 2 tsp of butter and 2 tsp of sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy.
- Add the egg to the butter-sugar mixture and beat well to incorporate.
- Mix in the 2 tsp of vanilla extract until combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the self-raising flour and 1 tsp of cinnamon.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with the milk to ensure a smooth and even batter. Start and end with the flour mixture.
- Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and use a spatula to smooth the top.
- Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 20-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Once baked, remove the teacake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
8. Optional Topping:
- You can sprinkle additional sugar and cinnamon on top while the cake is still warm for extra flavor.
- Slice and serve the cinnamon teacake with your favorite tea or coffee. Enjoy!
Tips:
- Ensure your butter is at room temperature before you start mixing to achieve a smoother batter.
- Sift the self-raising flour to avoid any lumps and to incorporate more air for a lighter cake texture.
- If you prefer a stronger cinnamon flavor, you can add an extra half teaspoon of cinnamon to the cake batter.
- Don’t overmix the batter as it can cause the cake to be dense. Mix until just combined.
- Use a toothpick to check for doneness; if it comes out clean, your cake is ready.
- Let the cake cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a cooling rack to cool completely.
And there you have it – a satisfying and aromatic cinnamon teacake that’s perfect for any occasion. Whether enjoyed warm out of the oven or at room temperature, this cake is bound to be a hit. Pair it with your favorite tea or coffee, and savor every bite. Happy baking!
