add cream, salt, vanilla and mix
sift in flour
200 degrees 45 mins was good in Wales with Fe’s dutch oven, it was too long at the parents’ house though
middle should still be liquid/jiggly
after taking out and letting cool for few mins, separate walls of cheesecake from paper to stop cracking

3/4 tsp bicarb
2 pinch salt
25g flour (I used wholewheat)
1/3 cup sugar (used Aldi stevia sweetener)

tried to use 15ml milk as the recipe said, but seemed too dry
would probably be good with choc chips but was too scared to add them to an experiment

marmalade cake
110g marg
40g sugar
2 eggs
110g flour
1.5 tsp baking powder
3 heaped tbsp marmalade
beat marg and sugar together
add eggs, then flour, then stir in marmalade (or blitz in before flour?)
scrape into loaf tin
150 degrees, 35 mins
I put raisins in too. Tastes great but raisins and marmalade all sank to the bottom. Very moist. Used 50g sugar, could reduce. Added tbsp of milk - maybe that was a mistake?? Loosened a tbsp of marmalade with hot water and brushed it on top.
2nd time: used 30g sugar, 40g would be better. No raisins this time sadly. Blitzed marmalade into mix before adding flour, blobbed chunk of marma in the middle of cupcakes, bakes 170 degrees for 20 mins and was a bit overdone so maybe 15-17 min.
