New Zealand Billy Sponge

    I need to start by saying, I have kids. I have no clue where my loaf pan got off to, so I made this in an 8" circle cake pan. To me it had an eggy taste to it that was ok, but the fact I haven't gone back for a second piece all day tells me it's a three star. Good, but just not for me. My daughter had it with the lemon sauce I had made for Recipe #427707 and liked it that way. Thanks Debbie! Made for ZWT8 Family Picks.

    New Zealand Billy Sponge, This is from Jo Seagar’s New Zealand Country Cookbook The author says that it used to be cooked in a billy in a camp oven or coal range She said it makes a nice dessert with fresh or poached fruit and ice cream or whipped cream Also great with bacon, bananas and maple syrup for brunch or breakfast I guess what makes this one is the cracked sugar coating and the rather chewy texture I have not made this, but I want to do so I don’t think I would use Pam spray for this because I’m not sure it would create the crackly sugar coating she talks about I’d use butter ETA: One reviewer said that a family member really liked this with lemon sauce , I need to start by saying, I have kids I have no clue where my loaf pan got off to, so I made this in an 8 circle cake pan To me it had an eggy taste to it that was ok, but the fact I haven’t gone back for a second piece all day tells me it’s a three star Good, but just not for me My daughter had it with the lemon sauce I had made for Recipe #427707 and liked it that way Thanks Debbie!
