Sift the flour and baking powder (if using) into another bowl and add two tablespoons at a time to the egg and cream mix until all of the flour is incorporated and the mix is velvety smooth. Pour this mix into the prepared tin and bake for 50-60 mins. Remove from the oven and set aside still in the tin. Melt the jam in a small saucepan with a splash of water until a thick syrup is achieved. Now brush the cake liberally with the glaze and set aside. Now whip-up the icing glaze, by whisking the icing sugar, lemon juice and zest together until a thick clear paste is reached. Now brush this glaze over the cake and leave to set for 5 minutes. Put the oven on for 1 minute and then turn off and put the cake back inside to further solidify the glaze and then take a quick snap with the camera, pop the kettle on and indulge!
