Whisk in the beaten eggs, a little at a time, then beat in the vanilla.

For this step you'll need:
- 2 Egg(s) (free range) medium, lightly beaten
- 1tsp Vanilla extract

Sift in half of the flour and fold into the mixture. Add the milk and the rest of the flour and fold until well combined.

- 125g Self-raising white flour
