Directions
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!
