Time 3h25m

Yield 10 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/2 cup vegetable oil, plus more for greasing the pan
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons walnuts
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon fine salt
2 large eggs
