    How to bake a cake with jam in the oven? Start by preparing the products according to the list. Use flour of the highest grade.

    Step 2.

    Combine milk, sugar and jam in a bowl. Mix everything with a whisk until smooth. You can use the mixer at low speed, but here the whisk will cope. You can add less sugar, especially if you have a very sweet jam. I added all the sugar and the cake turned out sweet, but not cloying.

    Pre-wash the raisins, dry them and mix them into the dough. You can choose the varieties of raisins according to your taste.

    Step 7.

    Pour the finished dough into a greased baking dish lined with parchment (I have a square shape with a side of 22 cm). Bake the gingerbread in a preheated 180 ° C oven for about 40-50 minutes. Determine the exact time and temperature of baking according to your oven. Check the readiness of the pie with a skewer - it should be dry. Remove the finished gingerbread from the mold, cool and serve to the table. Bon appetit!
