Steps to make Plum & almond cake with rosewater icing:
- Preheat the oven to 170C. Butter and line a loaf tin (I use shop-bought loaf tin liners. Much quicker).
- Cream together the butter and the sugar until pale and creamy, then mix in the lemon zest.
- Sift together the flour, baking powder, mixed spice and salt, then mix in the ground almonds.
- Mix the eggs into the butter/sugar in thirds - a third of the egg mixture with a small spoon of the flour mixture, a third more eggs, more flour etc.
- When all blended together, stir in the plums.
- Scrape the mixture into the loaf tin, smooth the top, then scatter over the flaked almonds.
- Bake for 50-55 minutes, testing with a skewer for doneness (I love that word). Return to the oven if a skewer comes out sticky.
- When cooked, put the tin on a rack to cool for 20 minutes before taking the loaf out of the tin.
- Sift the icing sugar into a small bowl. In a cup, mix together the rosewater and the warm water, and gradually add this to the icing sugar. Stir until you have a smooth, quite runny icing.
- Pour or drizzle the icing over the loaf and leave to set.
