2. Add in eggs, oil , honey and vanilla and combine very well.

Add in your flavours if desired… Add cacao in first step or any other dry ingredients, you may need an extra egg if it’s too dry in this case.

If you are adding in bananas do it in step two and if it’s whole ingredients like chocolate chips or berries stir in by hand after batter is made.
