  3. Combine all of the ingredients in a blender and blend about 2 minutes, or until smooth.
  4. Spoon the batter into the greased pan (it will be thick) and smooth out with a spatula.
  5. Bake at 350 degrees F for 60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean and the cake has risen slightly.
  6. Remove and cool for 15 minutes before slicing.
