Ingredients

125 gram margarine

3/4 cup caster sugar

2 eggs

1 tablespoon finely grated orange rind

2 cup self-raising flour, sifted

1/4 cup low-fat milk

1/4 cup orange juice

3/4 cup sultanas

Method

1.Preheat oven to 180°C (160°C fan-forced). Lightly grease two 8 x 26cm bar pans. Line bases with baking paper.

2.In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, cream spread and sugar, until pale and creamy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in orange rind.

3.Lightly fold flour into creamed mixture alternately with combined milk and juice, beginning and ending with flour. Fold in sultanas.

4.Pour an equal amount into each pan; smooth top. Bake 35-40 minutes, until cooked when tested with a skewer. Cool in pan 5 minutes. Turn onto a wire rack to cool completely. Serve.

When creaming spread and sugar, occasionally scrape down sides of bowl. This loaf may sink slightly in the centre, but this will not affect the cake.
