TRY THESE THREE TWISTS
1 Coffee & cardamom
Add 50ml cooled strong coffee and the crushed seeds from

3 Raspberry & pistachio
Fold 80g raspberries and 50g chopped pistachios into the batter, then bake the cake for an extra 10 mins. While the cake cools, mix 100g icing sugar with 6 raspberries to make a rough icing. Spoon over the cooled loaf and top with a handful of chopped pistachios.
