### **Method:**

1. Preheat the oven to 180°C/160°C fan/gas mark 4\. Lightly grease a 20cm-diameter round cake tin and line the base with greaseproof or waxed paper.
2. Pour all of the ingredients into a large mixing bowl and use an electric hand whisk to beat until smooth. You can also do this in a food-processor.
3. Pour the mixture into the prepared tin and bake for 50 minutes to an hour, until the cake is golden, well risen and a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean.
4. Leave to cool in the tin for 20 minutes, before turning out onto a wire rack to cool completely.

This cake is delicious served warm with a dollop of crème fraiche and a spring of thyme.
