This is a very easy to make cake, really tasty and moist so it keeps well for a few days, wrapped in foil.
Ingredients
- 350g plain flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 180g brown sugar and/or honey or maple syrup
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp nutmeg

- 3 eggs
- 75ml milk
- 200ml sunflower oil
- handful of chopped walnuts (optional)
Method

- Bake for about 45 – 55mins until dark brown on top.
