This Lemon Cake is a light and fragrant sweet delight, perfect for any occasion! Here’s how to prepare it step by step.
Ingredients
For the dough:
3 Eggs 🥚
150 g Sugar 🍬
15 g Lemon Zest 🍋
120 ml Vegetable Oil 🥄
35 ml Fresh Lemon Juice 🍋
160 ml Milk 🥛
260 g Flour 🌾
16 g Baking Powder 🌟
Method
Preparation of the dough:
In a large bowl, beat the eggs with the sugar until the mixture is light and frothy.
Add the lemon zest and mix well to release the aroma.
Pour in the oil, lemon juice and milk, continuing to mix to combine all the ingredients well.
Adding the dry ingredients:
Sift the flour and baking powder, then gradually add them to the wet mixture, stirring gently to avoid lumps.
Baking:
Preheat the oven to 180°C.
Pour the mixture into a previously greased and floured pan.
Place in the oven and bake for approximately 35-40 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the centre of the cake comes out clean.
Finishing and serving:
Let the cake cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve the cake at room temperature, dusted with icing sugar or garnished with fresh lemon slices for an extra touch of freshness.
Tips:
Make sure all the ingredients are at room temperature for best emulsion.
Baking times may vary depending on your oven, so check the cake after the first 30 minutes.
