Ingredients

  • 3 eggs
  • 2 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp Baking powder
  • ½ cup Corn starch
  • ⅜ cup milk
  • 2 Tbsps cocoa powder

Instructions

  1. Heat the oven to 180°C (160°C in a fan oven), 375°F, gas 5. Brush the loaf tin with butter and coat with breadcrumbs.
  2. Cream together the butter and sugar. Add the vanilla sugar, a pinch of salt and a pinch of lemon zest, then add the eggs one at a time, stirring after each addition. Sieve together the flour, baking powder and cornflour and stir in, alternating with the milk, to form a smooth dough that holds together well.
