Spotted a beautiful batch of lemons in the vegetable market over the weekend and I couldn't stop myself from buying a few (read lots) 🍋

Utilised a few of the lemons yesterday by preparing this delicious lemon cake. The good thing about this recipe is that it uses wheat flour in place of regular flour and uses desi khand [Indian unrefined sugar] in place of refined sugar 😋

The drizzle I made a little boozy by adding Limoncello that I bought in Italy. You can skip Limoncello and just use lemon juice also 😁

Try it out and let me know how it turns out for you! 🤗
