Remember to ask a grown-up for help.

You will need:

This should take about 45 minutes

• 2 tbsp vegetable oil plus some extra for brushing loaf tin
• 1 egg
• 1 x 45g pot of fruity fromage frais
• 1 fresh peach (or nectarine)
• ½ pot caster sugar
• 3 pots of self raising flour

Step 1

Before cooking, wash your hands and put an apron on. Weigh and measure the ingredients.

Step 2

Prepare a loaf tin by brushing around the inside with vegetable oil.

Step 3

To make the cake, start by breaking the egg into the mixing bowl and beating it with a fork.

Step 4

Now empty in the flavoured fromage frais with a teaspoon – any fruit flavour will be great. Then wash out and dry the pot.

Step 5

Using a table knife – take it for a walk around the peach, cutting down to the stone hidden inside then twist the 2 halves to open it up. Remove the stone by carefully twisting it. Then cut the peach into small bite size pieces and add to the mixing bowl.

Step 6

Now measure half a pot of caster sugar followed by 3 level pots of self-raising flour and add them to the mixing bowl. Finally measure in the vegetable oil and mix all the ingredients together well.

Step 7

Put the cake mixture into a loaf tin. Place the tin onto a baking tray.

Step 8

You will need to ask a grown-up for help with this part. Place in the oven at 160ºC fan/180° C/Gas 4 for 25-30 minutes or until cooked/golden brown...

Step 9

Serve 1 slice per person.
