  2. 175 gcaster sugar

  4. 3eggs

Cooking Instructions

1hr
  1. 1

    Finely zest the lemon. Just the outer bright yellow skin, don’t go to deep. Preheat oven to 180c. (170c fan)

  2. 2

    Measure out all your ingredients. The flour and baking powder can go together. The butter (pop in microwave for 20seconds) and sugar can go together.

  3. 3

    Cream the softened butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Add lemon zest.

  4. 4

    Beat in one egg at a time and a little of the flour until fully combined and a smooth batter is formed.

  5. 5

    Line your loaf tin with buttered parchment. Place all the mixture in and bake for 35-40minutes approx. Until golden brown, use a skewer to check it comes out clean.

  6. 6

    I like to skewer it all over to create holes for the drizzle to seep into. Allow to cool a little

  7. 7

    For the drizzle- juice and sieve the lemon. Mix thoroughly with the sugar and spoon over the still warm sponge. Leave to cool.
