Preparation
- Step 1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter a round, 12-inch pie tin with low sides, then flour lightly, shaking out the excess flour.
- Step 2
If using an electric mixer, put all the ingredients in the large mixer bowl. Using either the paddle or the dough hook, mix until the dough masses. Wrap a tea towel around and over the top of both mixer and bowl to keep the flour from scattering. The mixture should be crumbly, not smooth. If mixing by hand, use a large spoon and mix all ingredients to the crumbly stage.
- Step 3
Empty the mixture into the prepared tin, smoothing the top with a spatula or with your hands. Bake for about an hour. Check the cake after 50 minutes. It should be light brown, darker around the edges.
- Step 4
Place on a rack and remove from the tin before completely cooled, after about 10 minutes. Replace on the rack to cool completely.
