Lightly grease and line a 20cm x 20cm baking pan (or similiar).
In a large bowl, add each ingredient in and stir to combine as you go. Mix well.
Pour the mixture into prepared pan, bake for 45 – 50 minutes, until top is golden and middle is firm to touch.
Serve hot with a salad or steamed vegetables. Can also be eaten cold and makes a great addition to school lunch boxes.
To make in a small loaf tin or muffin pan, only bake for about 15-20 minutes.
