Long rhubarb

Here's another nice, quick cake recipe - typically Icelandic with rhubarb jam.

Ingredients

250 g flour
120 g brown sugar
100 g margarine
1 tsp baking powder
100 ml milk
3 Tbsp rhubarb jam
1 egg
1 Tbsp granulated sugar
1 Tbsp chopped almonds


Preparation

Preheat the oven to 350 °F (180 °C) upper/lower heat.

In a large bowl, mix the flour with the sugar, butter, baking powder and milk...

...and knead into a smooth dough.

Then roll out the dough on a baking tray lined with baking paper (approx. 30 x 30 cm)...

...and spread the rhubarb jam in the middle.

Then fold the dough together and carefully press the edges.

Then carefully beat the egg and brush the top of the pastry with it...

...then sprinkle with the granulated sugar and chopped almonds.

Bake in a preheated oven at 350 °F (180 °C) for about 15 to 20 minutes until the cake has a nice golden yellow color.

Allow to cool thoroughly and then serve in thin strips.
