This cake is like a tray-baked cinnamon doughnut.

Moravian sugar cake with walnuts and cinnamon

Think of this unusual, sweet-yeasted "cake" as a tray-baked cinnamon doughnut. Originally made by Moravians who settled in America in the 18th century, the dough has mashed potato as its base and an irresistible brown-sugar topping. To enjoy it as a breakfast treat, make the dough the day before and let it rise in the fridge overnight before baking in the morning. Alternatively, prove on the same day in a warm place, ready to bake for afternoon tea.
