"I had a total failure with this recipe. Looking at similar loaf cakes recipes I use I wonder if 160*C in my oven just wasn't hot enough, certainly 140*C would not have been hot enough despite mine being a fan oven. Most loaf cakes I do cook at 180*C. I cooked it for 1 3/4 hours and it still wasn't cooked through, and once cooled was solid - even the birds wouldn't eat it. I like the flavour idea though so might give it another go with the same ingredients but to one of my own loaf tin recipes. "
