Preparation

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 180C (fan oven). Whisk the sugar and eggs together until the mixture is thick and a very light yellow colour.

Step 2

In a separate bowl or jug mix the oil, milk, zest and lemon/lime juice together. Don't worry - the citrus will curdle the milk but it all works out ok when you mix it with the rest of the ingredients!

Step 3

Slowly add the oil/milk/citrus mixture to the sugar and egg while whisking. Once fully combined, start to mix in the flour and baking powder.

Step 4

I wanted to have a bit more of the sesame flavour so put the sesame seeds in a dry pan on a medium to high temperature for a few minutes until the oils and flavours started to come out. Mix the sesame seeds into the batter then spoon into mini loaf tins or cases.
