  • 2 cups Flour 250 grams weighed
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 large eggs

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease and line a 9 x 5 baking tin with parchment paper with some overhang to allow for easy removal from tin.
  • Sift the flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt together in a large bowl.

  • Allow to cool in tin for about ten minutes and then move to cooling rack to cool completely.
