Instructions
1 Heat the oven to 180ºC/160ºC/gas 4. Line the base and sides of a 11cm wide x 7cm high loaf tin with non-stick baking paper and spray with oil.
2 Put all the ingredients except the macadamia nuts in a food processor and blend until smooth. Remove the blade from the food processor, then add the nuts to the bowl. Roughly stir with a spoon to combine.
3 Transfer the mixture to the loaf tin and spread evenly. Bake for 20–25 min until golden and the middle is just firm but still a little squidgy.
4 Remove from the oven and leave to cool. Slice into 6, then cut each slice in half again.
