Brilliant recipe, came out wonderfully
Just read the recipe, love the sound of it but want to be sure I`ve got the right size tin, how big should it be please?
Great recipe, kids loved it, I will give it a 10 out 10
@Monica: I used a small loaf tin
195°C seemed to be a little to hot, but gave it a try, after 35 mins it was really dark, cooled, then tried, tasted good, I’ll try it again but at a lower temperature
I made this yesterday. It was nice but a bit dry, so next time I think I will add some oil for extra moisture. I think it must be the oats that dry it out. Good flavour though so will try again
