AND THIS IS WHAT YOU DO......

  1. Pre-heat the oven to 180c/Fan 170c.

  2. Butter and flour a round cake tin.

  3. Beat the eggs and sugar until light and creamy.

  4. Gradually add the almonds and self raising flour.

  5. Spoon this mixture into the baking tin and cook for 25 - 35 mins - checking with a knife in the centre, which should come out clean and the cake will start to come away from the sides.
