Gluten free sponge cake.

Hi everyone,

I fancied an old fashioned sponge cake with seedless raspberry jam so I made this with gluten free self raising flour eggs butter and brown sugar using a standard sponge recipe with 1/4 of each ingredient except I use at least 20% less sugar as I don't like things too sweet and especially as I was spreading seedless jam in between it. I think this shows how easy it is to bake gluten free when using eggs and its a nice simple recipe.

165g S/R gluten free flour, 165g Butter, 3 free range eggs, 140g brown sugar with 1/2 tea spoon of baking powder all whizzed together and baked at 175C for approx 20 mins until cooked through with seedless raspberry jam spread in the middle when cool.

And then enjoy with a nice big cup of tea...happy days 🌈🌞
