FOR THE STICKY PINEAPPLE AND NECTARINE TOPPING

3-4 Thin pineapple slices
2 Nectarines, thinly sliced
2 tbsp Maple syrup or coconut sugar

Juice of 1 lime
Directions

Preheat the oven to 170°C.
Lightly grease and line a small loaf tin or 20 x 20 cm baking tray with baking paper.
Add the fruit slices, maple syrup, spices and lime juice to the bottom of the baking dish and set aside.
Mix together the cake ingredients in a large mixing bowl until a smooth batter has formed.
Pour the batter over the fruit in the prepared tin and bake for 35–40 minutes, or until golden and a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean.
Remove from the oven, and allow to cool for a few minutes before turning out.
