This super-fast, super-easy and super-delicious poppy seed cake is a favourite in our house. Light, tasty and with a unique texture, they go down a treat with adults and kids alike. You can make the recipe up as cup cakes, or as a single loaf cake. Enjoy!



1/2 cup of poppy seeds (buy in the herbs/spices section of the supermarket)
3/4 cup of milk
180g softened butter
2 teaspoons pure vanilla essence
1 cup of castor sugar
3 eggs
2 cups of self-raising flour

1. Stir the poppy seeds into the milk and leave to sit for half an hour or so (if you are short of time, or not organised enough like me, you can get away with not soaking them).

2. Put the butter, vanilla and castor sugar into a bowl and mix with electric mixer until creamy.

3. Add the 3 eggs and mix again.

4. Pour in the milk and poppy seeds mix, and then the sifted self-raising flour and mix for a couple of minutes until mixture becomes a little lighter.



5. Pour into muffin cases and bake in a moderate oven for approx 20 minutes or until lightly coloured. If a full loaf cake, bake for around 1 hour. The cake will spring back to a light touch in the centre if cooked.

5. Stand in the muffin tin or cake tin for 5 minutes before turning out onto a wire rack to cool.

6. If you wish to ice, put some orange or lemon juice in the icing. Delicious.
