Serve warm with custard, cream, or ice cream. For a crispier finish, bake uncovered. For a softer finish, tent loosely with foil in the last 10 minutes.
You can add a light dusting of sugar on top for a slight crunch. If you enjoy extra softness, warm the jam before spreading so it glides across the dough without tearing it. A spoonful of vanilla in the milk adds a mild aroma that suits spelt well.
Use plant-based butter and oat milk for a dairy-free version. Choose a low-sugar jam if you want a lighter result.
