Feijoa cake with honey


The neighbours have a feijoa tree dripping with fruit so they gave us a bag - hence the recipe. The fruit makes it really moist.

50g soft butter
3 eggs
3/4 cup honey
1 tsp vanilla extract
Around 1 cup mashed feijoas
2 cups standard flour
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 cup milk

Preheat oven to 180 degrees C.
Cream butter and honey.
Add eggs slowly, beating all the time.
Add the vanilla.
Fold the feijoas into the mixture.
Sieve the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Fold through the mixture adding the milk slowly as well.
Spoon the mixture into a tin and bake for around 40 minutes or until an inserted skewer comes out clean.
