Ingredients

1 loaf pan
  1. Zest of 1 lemon
  2. 1 tablespoonlemon juice
  3. 7 tablespoons (100 grams)butter
  4. 7 tablespoons (90 grams)sugar
  5. 3/4 cup (100 grams)cake flour
  6. 3 tablespoons (20 grams)almond flour
  7. 2medium eggs
  8. Lemon Glaze
  9. 1/2 cup (60 grams)powdered sugar
  10. 1 tablespoonlemon juice
  11. 1/2-1 tablespoonwater (to taste)

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Mix the butter, softened to room temperature, until it becomes pale. (If using straight from the fridge, microwave the butter for about 30 seconds.)

  2. 2

    Add the sugar to the well-mixed butter and mix thoroughly until fluffy. (You can use a hand mixer.) The key is to mix well!

  3. 3

    Gradually add the beaten eggs, mixing well each time. The mixture will become quite fluffy when the eggs are added.

  4. 4

    Wash the lemon well and grate the zest. Add the grated zest and lemon juice to the mixture from step 3 and mix well again.

  5. 5

    Add the sifted cake flour and almond flour, and fold with a spatula until the mixture is glossy.

  6. 6

    Pour the batter into a loaf pan and bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (180°C) for 35-40 minutes, checking occasionally. It's done when a skewer comes out clean.

  7. 7

    Remove from the pan immediately after baking and let it cool.

  8. 8

    Add lemon juice to the powdered sugar, then add half of the water and mix well. Adjust the consistency by adding more water until it becomes syrupy, as shown in the picture.

  9. 9

    Generously brush the cooled cake with the lemon glaze made in step 8.

  10. 10

    Once the glaze has dried, it's ready to serve!
