    Really easy and fab recipe. I reduced the sugar to 180grams after reading previous comments and added a teaspoon of vanilla extract. It's sweet enough for us. I used 180 grams of melted butter as I had no mild oil in the house.
    I cooked in a muffin tin on 180 degrees for 18 minutes. I brushed the tops with warm blood orange marmalade as I had some needing to be used up.

    Everybody loved it. I kept the cake recipe as is. But Instead of syrup I just made a thin icing using lemon juice and icing sugar.

    Lovely cake but make sure you spray the tin very well as it sticks!

    Nice and simple cake. thanks.

    Cut down sugar by 100g, then rellised didn't have enough oil by about 100 g and yoghurt by about the same... so cut down on flour by 60g and cake still turned out ok.

    Quick, easy and very tasty. I halved the sugar too. Greased a ring tin and dusted it with flour, baked for the exact time, and it came out of the tin very easily. I had plenty of home made kefir so I used that instead of the yoghurt, worked very well. Thanks for sharing Smile

    6/6/19. I’ve made this recipe several times now and had good results putting mixture into muffins.

    Yum!
    I made this with a little less sugar. It was delicious and moist and a hit with the family.
    Will definitely be making this again!
