- Pre-heat the oven to 180C/350F/gas 4. Line a 2lb loaf tin with greaseproof paper.
- Beat the eggs & sugar together and gradually add the oil.
- Add all other ingredients, reserving 15g sunflower seeds. Mix well.
- Spoon the mixture into the loaf tin, level off, and sprinkle the reserved sunflower seeds over the top.

- Leave to cool slightly in the tin before turning out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
