Ingredients
  • CAKE:
  • scant 2 cups (4-1/2 dl) flour
  • 2/3 cup (1-1/2 dl) granulated sugar
  • Note: I like to add 1/2 tsp. ground cardamon but the original recipe does not call for it. I also like to mix a handful of golden raisins(soaked in Brandy) with the lingonberry preserves. If you do not wish to soak the raisins in Brandy then I have also soaked them in apple cider. This is my personal addition.
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • a scant 2/3 cup (150 g / 5 ounces, ) unsalted butter
  • 1 egg
  • 3/4 cup (2 dl) lingonberry preserves
  • STREUSEL TOPPING:
  • 2/3 cup (1-1/2 dl) oatmeal
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 1/2 cup (1 dl) granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla sugar or 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions
  1. Preheat the oven to 200 degrees C (400 degrees F).
  2. Combine flour, sugar, and baking powder then cut in the butter with pastry blender.
  3. Add egg and mix well.
  4. Spread into a greased 8" x 12" pan.
  5. Spread the preserves over the batter.
  6. Bake 25-30 minutes or until golden.
  7. Cool in the pan.
