Cake sunk in the middle

Hello,

Some reasons for sinking may be….

• Too much baking powder – only use 3 levelled teaspoons.
• Oven running too high – cake cooks too fast so it seems cooked when its not and sinks as it cools.
• Oven opened too soon, or too frequently.
• Cake not cooked for the full time.
• Mincemeat brand is particularly wet.
• Eggs are too small – use 200g beaten eggs.
• This cake is level, as opposed to domed when baked.

Kind regards

Lindsey
