1. Preheat the oven to 180°C.

3. Whisk the wet ingredients, then stir into the dry ingredients. Do not overmix the mixture; stop mixing as soon as the two are combined.

4. Pour the batter into a greased 20 x 11 cm loaf tin and bake for 1½ hours, or until a skewer inserted comes out clean. Allow to cool, then pour over the lime drizzle.
