Step-by-step instructions

1. 1

   Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Line a 21 or 22cm square, shallow baking tin with baking parchment. Put the flour, ground rice and sugar in a bowl with the butter and rub in until fine crumbs form. Stir in the milk with a cutlery knife. Stir in cinnamon and cloves. Tip three-quarters into the tin and press down evenly. Bake for 15-20 mins until golden and crisp looking.

   Stir the jam in a bowl to loosen a little, then spread over the base. Crumble over the remaining slice mixture and bake for 5-10 mins more until the topping is golden. Scatter with 2 tsp caster sugar, cool in the tin, then slice into squares.
