INGREDIENTS

- 3 cups self-raising flour
- ¼ tsp baking powder
- 1/2 cup caster sugar

2. In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder and caster sugar. In a separate bowl, lightly whisk the milk, olive oil and eggs together. Pour the egg mixture into the dry ingredients and gently mix with a balloon whisk until half combined.
