3 g baking powder
3 g Dansukker Vanilla Sugar

Instructions

Beat the eggs and sugar until fluffy. Mix the remaining ingredients together and fold into the batter. Pour the batter into a greased, crumbed tin. Bake in the lower part of the oven for about 30 minutes at 175 °C. Leave the cake in the cake tin for 5 minutes, then turn out onto a rack. Slice the cake into three layers.

You can replace the granulated sugar with muscovado sugar and add 2-3 tbsp cocoa powder to the batter to make a chocolate cake base.
