I love a simple cinnamon cake at afternoon tea but, the truth is, I love it even more at breakfast. An easy tea cake that comes ready in less than an hour with an amazing smell and taste. The top is covered with a crumbling mixture of sugar, nuts and cinnamon which is glued nicely over the cake. When cake is cooked, turn out, and while hot spread with butter and sprinkle with cinnamon mixture on top. Bake these nutty, cinnamon-sugar buttons for an afternoon gathering.
