Ingredients
- 3 eggs
- 300 gr all purpose flour
- 150 gr sugar
- 100 ml of sunflower oil peanut or coconut are ok too
- 200 ml of milk of choice
- 30 gr of baking powder
- orange or lemon zest
Instructions
- Preheat the oven at 180/200°C (350/390°F). Grease your baking pan with butter and then add some flour and move the pan to even distribute the flour on the surface. You could also use one of those non-stick sprays but I do not like that kind of products, you don't really need all the other stuff in the spray.
- Put all the ingredients in a bowl and mix it with a whisk or in an electric mixer.
- Add the batter to the tray and cook for around 40/45 minutes.
- You can check if it’s ready by putting into the cake a skewer, if it comes out clean, the cake is ready. Let it cool completely and enjoy.
