| I made this the other day, and it was a great success. Quick and easy, and it keeps well for several days if you can. 6 oz soft butter 6 oz granulated sugar 3 eggs, beaten 6 oz self-raising flour milk to mix if required 1 medium courgette, grated zest and juice of one large lemon 1/2 tbsp. poppy seeds Cream butter and sugar, add eggs, mix well; add flour and milk if required to a dropping consistency. Add the remaining ingredients and mix well. Turn into a prepared loaf tin and bake for 35 - 40 minutes in a hottish oven. Cool on wire rack. Put the kettle on :) |

Can you give an approximate weight for a "medium" courgette please? Those of us who grow them have our own ideas of how large "medium" is - and it may not be a size that is conducive to a good cake...

Hm, not sure lol - mine was about 7'' long, used most of it and the rest went into a stir fry :)
ReplyDeleteI just put in enough to give a nice, but visible green speckle through the mix.
Hope that helps :)
