Notes
- * If you have cake flour you can use that and replace the all-purpose flour and cornstarch. So you will add 1/2 cup plus 1 tbsp of cake flour in lieu.
- ** You need a tin / metal loaf pan. If you don't have one, line your loaf pan with aluminum foil so that the cake can "climb" the sides of the pan while baking as there is no chemical leavener in this recipe. My metal loaf pan is 10" x 4", however a standard 8.5" x 4.5" will also work.
- *** It's really important not to over beat the mixture. If over beaten the cake will become more dense and less airy.
