Instructions

Grease and line an 8 inch cake tin. Preheat your oven to 175C.
Add everything to a large mixing bowl and whisk it all together.
Pour into your prepared cake tin and bake for 45 mins (it can take up to 1 hour depending on your oven.) I always check mine at 45 mins and see if it needs more time. It shouldn’t wobble and should be lovely and golden.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool before turning out.

Notes

I like to top with softly whipped cream and berries.
