Hello again face book friends .

As promised , my lemon drizzle cake recipe . Have fun and don't make too much mess .

In to bowl 1 place the following :-

7oz sieved plain white flour
2tsp baking powder
7oz caster sugar

Mix above well

In to bowl 2 place the following :-
4 beaten eggs
5 fl oz soured cream
grated rind of 1 large lemon
4 tsp lemon juice
5 fl oz vegetable oil

Mix contents of bowl 2 together with a whisk or hand mixer

Add contents of bowl 1 to bowl 2 and mix very well until evenly combined .

Pour contents evenly in to 2 x 1lb lined loaf tins and bake for approx. 55 minutes @ 175 0c

Leave to cool in their tins .

For the drizzle I mix 3tsp of lemon juice in a small pot with 5 tbsp icing sugar and reduce slowly on the cooker to a thick syrup .

note :- you are supposed to prick the surface of the cakes when you take them out of the oven and brush with the drizzle . I don't . I heat the drizzle mixture when I need the cakes and brush the cakes as I use them for events . The cakes will keep in a sealed container for 3 / 4 days .

Again enjoy and please let me know how you get on .

Stay safe everyone .

Jim :)
