The holidays have come to a close which means the kids are back to school. But that doesn’t mean that we can’t bring the family together around the breakfast table over the weekend. If you are looking for something to wake everyone up on a Saturday morning, then here’s a hidden gem that you can make with Prestige Margarine.

We are going to make ginger cake that’s sticky, sweet and subtly spiced.

Ingredients

• 200g self-rising flour
• 200g sugar
• 1 tsp ground ginger
• 1 tsp bicarbonate of soda
• 55g Prestige Margarine, plus extra for greasing

• 2 tbsp syrup
• 240ml hot water

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 180C. Grease and line the baking tin.
2. Mix the flour, sugar, ginger and bicarbonate of soda together in a bowl. Using your fingers, rub the margarine in until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs. Add the beaten egg, syrup and hot water and mix well with a wooden spoon until combined.
3. Pour the mixture into the prepared tin and bake in the middle of the oven for 35–40 minutes, or until golden-brown and the top is springy to the touch.Remove from the oven & leave to cool in the tin.
