Ingredients:
- 1 cup of milk
- 1 teaspoon of baking soda
- 2 cups of flour
- 2 teaspoons of baking powder
- 2 cups of brown sugar, firmly packed
- 3/4 cup of unsalted butter cubed and cold.
- 1-1 1/2 teaspoon of ground MF Nutmeg
- 1 egg
- 1/2 cup walnut pieces (break them up with your hand, you do not really want them chopped, but you do not want them whole, either)
Method:
1) In a small bowl, whisk together the baking soda and milk and set aside.
2) In a large bowl, whisk together the baking powder, flour, and brown sugar until combined.
3) Cut the cold butter cubes into the flour mixture until you get a uniform crumbly mixture. You can use your fingers or a fork.
4) Press half of this brown sugar mixture into the bottom of a springform pan to form the crust. Set aside and keep the other half in reserve for later.
5) In a medium bowl, whisk the egg and MF Nutmeg together until frothy.
6) Pour the milk mixture into the bowl with the eggs and whisk until combined. Pour the combined wet ingredients into the brown sugar mixture. It will be very fluid.
7) Pour the liquid batter over the crust.
8) Gently and evenly sprinkle the crushed walnut pieces over the batter.
9) Bake for 30-40 minutes, or until the top is golden and a toothpick inserted in the centre comes out clean.
10) Allow to cool, and then release the springform pan before enjoying.
