Cinnamon cake

First, preheat the oven to 180 °C. This is important so that the dough is baked evenly.

Mix the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt and cinnamon in a large bowl. My tip is to always sift the flour, as this will make your dough much lighter.

Add the egg and butter. The butter should be at room temperature, as this makes the dough easier to work with. Knead the ingredients together by hand until the dough is smooth and holds together.

Form the dough into dumplings and place them on a baking tray lined with baking paper. Press the tops down slightly with your fingers. Always leave enough space between the cookies, as they will grow as they bake.

Bake the cakes for about 15 minutes or until golden brown. Always keep an eye on the oven, because every oven bakes differently!
