Tip

Delicious when still warm - But try leaving it overnight so the juices further release into the cake rather then the cake being aroud the fruit! 

You may have to make 2!!

You can make your own cinamon sugar at the start of the recipe for the topping, but the granulation of teh raw sugar adds a lovely texture.

    Recipe is created for
    TM 5
    If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
    For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.
    Please note that the TM5 mixing bowl has a larger capacity than the TM31 (capacity of 2.2 liters instead of 2.0 liters for TM 31). Recipes for the Thermomix TM5 may not be cooked with a Thermomix TM31 for safety reasons without adjusting the quantities. Risk of scalding by spraying of hot liquids: Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity and observe the filling level markings of the mixing bowl!

    This is a great recipe. I used 150g sugar as i like it less sweet. This cake is a popular addition to our menu. Thanks
