Our new family favourite. Took no time at all to prepare. Just the job with a cuppa. Not the best marbling this time but will perfect that with more practice

Didn't turn out as swirly as your nans, but a big hit. one thing, make sure your melted butter is somewhat cooled before adding to the eggs, otherwise they could scramble and don't forget to line your tin with some parchment paper. For us US peeps, use kerrygold butter and set the oven at 320-340 for 70 mins

Oooh, now this sounds delicious. I've to do some baking for the local Women's Shed on Sunday and I've just got to add this to my list. I'll post photos and the reactions after I bring it in on Monday morning to them.
