A cake for midsummer

I was having a lethargic day today, and did a little baking to perk myself up.  (Well, it was more the eating of the baked goods that did the trick.)  Anyways, after seeing what I had in the fridge, I decided on Nigel Slater's "A cake for midsummer" from his book, Ripe.  As it is with all his recipes, it was otherworldly-delicious.  The main ingredients are raspberries (of which I threw an extra handful in), apricots, and ground almonds.  You can find the recipe here.

  1. Yummy! Looks so summery and buttery, two of my favorite words!

    The name reminds me of reading about the Midsummer Rites in 'I Capture the Castle'--read it yet?
