4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and whisk in a clockwise direction until only just combined. Fold in the beetroot.

5. Divide the mix between the pans and bake 20-25 minutes or until a skewer comes out clean. Cool in the pans then turn out onto a wire rack.

6. Whilst the cakes are still warm, heat the jam then stir into the icing sugar and milk. Glaze the warm cakes then allow to cool completely.
