Method

STEP 1

Preheat oven to 180°C (160°C fan-forced). Grease and line a 6cm-deep, 11cm x 21cm loaf pan, extending paper by 10cm over long sides.

STEP 2

Combine flour, hazelnut meal, caster sugar and nutmeg in a large bowl. Whisk oil, milk, eggs and vanilla in a separate bowl. Add to the flour mixture. Stir until combined. Fold in blueberries. Pour into the prepared pan.

STEP 3

Combine the pepitas, coconut and sunflower kernels in a bowl. Sprinkle over top of cake.

STEP 4

Sprinkle with white sugar. Bake for 1 hour 15 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the centre of loaf comes out clean.

STEP 5

Stand in the pan for 15 minutes. Lift onto a wire rack to cool. Serve warm or at room temperature with butter, honey and extra blueberries.
