RECIPE: Wholemeal courgette loaf cake

Ingredients
 

 

 
140g unsalted butter
 

 
140g brown sugar
 

 
2 medium eggs, beaten
 

 
140g wholemeal self-raising flour
 

 
1 tsp baking powder
 

 
1 large courgette, grated
 

 
What you'll need
 

 

 
Medium baking tin
 

 
Large mixing bowl
 

 
Wooden spoon
 

 
Method
 

 
Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4.

 

 

 
Melt the butter and pour into a large mixing bowl. Add the remaining butter from the pan to the tin and use to grease thoroughly.

Add the sugar to the butter and mix together, then slowly add the eggs, stirring continuously.
 

 

 
Mix in a little flour, then fold in the remaining flour, baking powder and courgette.

Pour into tin.


 
Bake for about 20 mins until starting to go golden, then remove from oven, cover with foil and replace for a further 10-15 minutes, or until a skewer comes out clean.

Cool in the tin for 30 mins, then remove to a wire rack.
