Method

Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease 8-inch springform pan; set aside. In saucepan, bring maple syrup, butter and cinnamon to boil; remove from heat. Mix in cranberries. Set aside.

Cake

In bowl, whisk together flour, bak­ ing powder and salt. In separate bowl, using electric mixer, beat butter with sugar until smooth; add egg yolks, one at a time. Beat in vanilla. Stir flour mixture into butter mixture alternately with milk, making 3 additions of flour and 2 of milk. In separate bowl, beat egg whites until stiff peaks form; fold into batter.

Spoon cranberry mixture into bottom of prepared pan, then pour in batter. Bake until cake tester inserted in centre comes out clean, about 50 minutes. Let cool 30 minutes.

Garnish

Run knife around edge of cake; invert onto serving plate. Let stand for 10 minutes; remove pan. Decorate with cranberries; sprinkle sugar over top (if using).

Test Kitchen Tip: Use Robin Hood® Unbleached All-Purpose Flour for all-purpose flour in any recipe—it retains the natural creamy yellow colour of the grain.
