CINNAMON TEA CAKE
This is an old family favourite. I love it because it's quick and easy to whip up and it can be eaten warm - so you don't even have to wait for it to cool - perfect for unexpected guests! It only makes a fairly small cake - but quite enough for morning or afternoon tea - and it's nicer eaten fresh and warm from the oven. This recipe is from my Bible of cooking, Margaret Fulton's Encyclopedia of Food and Cookery.

Steps:

- Add egg yolk, then gradually beat in the sugar.
- Mix together the milk and vanilla and add a little at a time, beating continuously.
- Using a wooden spoon (or beaters on low speed) gently stir in the flour and the melted butter.
- Pour batter into prepared cake tin.
- Place on the centre shelf of the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes or until cooked.
- Remove from oven and invert cake onto a plate.

GLUTEN-FREE CINNAMON SUGAR TEACAKE
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Lightly grease a 7 by 4 by 3-inch loaf pan with oil.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, 1 cup of the evaporated cane juice, the potato starch, arrowroot, baking powder, baking soda, xanthan gum, salt, and 1 tablespoon of the cinnamon. Add the oil, applesauce, vanilla, and 1 cup of hot water to the dry ingredients. Stir until the batter is smooth. Transfer 1/4 cup of the batter to a small bowl, and add the remaining 1/4 cup of the evaporated cane juice, 1 tablespoon of cinnamon, and the remaining hot water. Stir until the mixture is creamy.
- Pour contents of the medium bowl into the prepared loaf pan. Carefully drizzle the batter from the small bowl down the center of the loaf. To create the swirl, take a teaspoon and, starting from 1 end of the loaf pan, move down the length of the pan as you swirl the spoon up and down through the batter. Sprinkle the top with evaporated cane juice. Put the pan in the oven on the center rack and bake for 25 minutes. Remove from the oven and brush the top with a generous amount of oil. Return it to the oven and bake for another 15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean and the crust is crunchy.
- Let the teacake cool in the pan for 20 minutes, then gently run a knife around the edge of the cake. Cover the top of the pan with a cutting board, and invert the cake onto the board. Carefully lift the pan away and re-invert the Teacake onto another cutting board. Either cut and serve warm, or wait until it is completely cool before storing. Cover the uncut teacake with plastic wrap and store at room temperature for up to 3 days.

RUSSIAN TEA CAKES
Steps:
- First, brown the butter: Place the butter in a medium saucepan over low heat to cook. Check it after about 7 minutes; it should be a medium-brown color, not too light but not too burnt. Once it reaches that color, take it off the heat and let it cool. Refrigerate to continue to cool for about 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line 3 half sheet pans with parchment paper.
- Add the cold browned butter, flour, powdered sugar, salt, vanilla extract and cinnamon to a food processor; process until light and fluffy. Transfer to a large bowl. Add the walnuts and mix with a rubber spatula until combined.
- Using a small ice cream scoop, portion 48 mounds of the dough onto your prepared sheet pans, spacing them 2 inches apart. Place in the freezer to cool for 15 minutes.
- Bake until the cookies are firm and smell nutty and toasty, 15 to 18 minutes. Rotate the pans 180 degrees halfway through baking.
- Meanwhile, place additional powdered sugar in another large bowl. Once the cookies are out of the oven, let cool for exactly 6 minutes 30 seconds then toss in the powdered sugar. Enjoy!
