Mummy’s Fast & Easy


This Nigella inspired recipe is one of the fastest and easiest cake recipes I know.
And the cake looks really attractive.
It took me about 5 minutes to prepare it and another 30 minutes for cooking.
And the ingredients you need are basic ingredients – I’m sure most of you have these stacked in your kitchen cupboard all the time.
You can substitute the pineapple for other fruit you like/have, I believe it will be as tasty as the original recipe.
I haven’t done it myself, but would love to try it with bananas,oranges,grapes,peaches, anything!:-)

Here’s what you need.

  • 5-6 slices fresh pineapple
  • 100g/3.5oz flour
