Instructions
 

Prepare the Baking Pan

  • Grease and line a baking pan (approximately 8x8 inches or a similar sized square pan) with parchment paper. Set aside.

Preheat Oven

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Combine Dry Ingredients

  • In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cornflour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

Combine Wet Ingredients

  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the oil, milk, vinegar, sugar, and strawberry extract until well combined.

Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients

  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

Add Eggs

  • Gently fold in the eggs until the batter is smooth.

Bake the Cake

  • Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Cool the Cake

  • Let the cake cool completely in the pan before cutting.

Prepare the Strawberry Glaze

  • Gently heat the strawberry jam in a small saucepan until melted and smooth.

Assemble the Lamingtons

  • Cut the cooled cake into squares. Dip each square into the melted strawberry jam, ensuring it's fully coated. Then, roll the jam-coated squares in the desiccated coconut until completely covered.

Serve

  • Serve immediately and enjoy!

Recipe Notes

Expert Tips for Perfect Strawberry Lamingtons:

  • For a richer flavor, use good quality strawberry jam. Homemade is even better!
  • Don't overmix the batter, or your lamingtons will be tough. Mix until just combined.
  • Ensure the cake is completely cool before cutting and dipping to prevent the coating from melting.
  • For an extra touch, garnish with fresh strawberries before serving.
