Ingredients

1½ cups self-raising flour

¾ cup caster sugar

2 tbsp poppy seeds

¼ cup honey

3 eggs

200g tub Greek yoghurt

½ cup light olive oil

1 lime, juiced and zest finely grated

 

Syrup

½ cup sugar

¼ cup water

1 lime, thinly sliced

Method

  1. Preheat oven to 180°C. Grease and line sides of a 20cm x 11cm (top measurement) loaf tin with baking paper. Sift flour into a large bowl. Stir in caster sugar and poppy seeds.

  2. Put honey, eggs, yoghurt, olive oil, lime juice and zest in a separate bowl and whisk until smooth. Add to flour mixture and whisk until smooth. Pour mixture into prepared tin.

  3. Bake for 45-50 minutes or until a skewer inserted in centre comes out clean (cover with foil after 35-40 minutes to prevent overbrowning). Cool in tin for 15 minutes. Remove from tin and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

  4. To make syrup, put sugar and water in a small saucepan and stir over a medium-high heat until sugar dissolves. Bring to the boil. Add lime slices and simmer for 4-5 minutes or until slices are soft and glossy. Remove lime using a fork and set aside.

  5. Continue to boil syrup for 2-3 minutes or until thickened. Remove from heat and cool slightly. Pour syrup over cake and decorate cake with lime slices. Serve.
