1.  Grease and flour 21cm baba pan.
2.  Combine all ingredients in a bowl and mix it with a wooden spoon. Pour batter into prepared pan.
3.  Bake at pre-heated oven 180C about 45 minutes.
4.  Let it rest in pan for 10 minutes.
5.  Invert cake and continue to let it cool on wire rack.
6.  Happy baking!
