Method

Step by step

  1. Heat the oven and prepare the pan so it is ready before the batter is.
  2. Cream or whisk the butter, sugar and eggs until smooth and light.
  3. Fold in the dry ingredients gently to keep the texture tender.
  4. Bake until just set, then cool fully before slicing and serving.
