Sounds like your slow cooker may have a hot spot?
If it’s a round shape you can rotate the cooking bowl a few times during cooking to be sure no one spot sits on the hot spot too long
If it’s not round perhaps use your baking paper to carefully lift your cake half way then lower it back in the opposite way for the same effect with the hot spot?

I made this yesterday, smelt great while it was cooking. But one side is burnt. I cooked it straight in sc. I lined it with 2 layers of baking paper. I want to try it again, any suggestions to avoid burning. It took 3.5hrs on high.

This one has been cooked directly in the slow cooker bowl lined with baking paper but the tin is given as an alternative so you have a size guide I believe?

Love this cake. I use this as my go to recipe for my Xmas cakes every year. So moist and tasty and so many compliments received.

What do you mean by’prepared slow cooker dish’? Is that simply what you use to cook other dishes, the ceramic insert? Do you line it and just lift the cake out using the paper? I would love to try this.
