It&#8217;s not only easy to make but also packs a flavorful punch, ensuring a treat that everyone will enjoy.<\/p>\n<h2>Ingredients<\/h2>\n<p>&#8211; Servings: 4<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; 80g salted butter<br \/>\n&#8211; 150g sugar<br \/>\n&#8211; 200g flour<br \/>\n&#8211; 3 eggs<br \/>\n&#8211; 1\/2 packet baking powder<br \/>\n&#8211; 10cl semi-skimmed milk or fresh cream<br \/>\n&#8211; Grated zest and juice of one lemon<\/p>\n<h2>Preparation<\/h2>\n<p>&#8211; Total Time: 55 minutes<br \/>\n&#8211; Prep Time: 10 minutes<br \/>\n&#8211; Cooking Time: 45 minutes<\/p>\n<h3>Step 1<\/h3>\n<p>Allow the butter to soften at room temperature. Preheat the oven to 180\u00b0C (350\u00b0F). Grease a baking mold with some of the butter.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 2<\/h3>\n<p>Cream the softened butter with the sugar until the mixture turns light and fluffy.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 3<\/h3>\n<p>Incorporate the beaten eggs, lemon juice, and grated lemon zest into the creamed butter and sugar, whisking thoroughly.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 4<\/h3>\n<p>Sift the flour and baking powder together and gently fold them into the wet mixture to maintain the airiness.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 5<\/h3>\n<p>Pour the batter into the prepared mold. Bake in the preheated oven for 40 to 50 minutes, or until the cake is golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.<\/p>\n<h3>To Finish<\/h3>\n<p>Serve the cake warm or at room temperature with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra indulgent treat. Enjoy your summery dessert alongside a cup of robust English tea for a truly comforting experience.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"kk-star-ratings kksr-auto kksr-align-left kksr-valign-bottom\"\n    data-payload='{&quot;align&quot;:&quot;left&quot;,&quot;id&quot;:&quot;4231&quot;,&quot;slug&quot;:&quot;default&quot;,&quot;valign&quot;:&quot;bottom&quot;,&quot;ignore&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;reference&quot;:&quot;auto&quot;,&quot;class&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;count&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;legendonly&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;readonly&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;score&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;starsonly&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;best&quot;:&quot;5&quot;,&quot;gap&quot;:&quot;5&quot;,&quot;greet&quot;:&quot;Rate this post&quot;,&quot;legend&quot;:&quot;0\\\/5 - (0 votes)&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;22&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;Ultra Easy Lemon Cake Recipe: A Simple Delight That Wows!&quot;,&quot;width&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;_legend&quot;:&quot;{score}\\\/{best} - ({count} {votes})&quot;,&quot;font_factor&quot;:&quot;1.25&quot;}'>\n            \n<div class=\"kksr-stars\">\n    \n<div class=\"kksr-stars-inactive\">\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" data-star=\"1\" style=\"padding-right: 5px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 22px; height: 22px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" data-star=\"2\" style=\"padding-right: 5px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 22px; height: 22px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" data-star=\"3\" style=\"padding-right: 5px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 22px; height: 22px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" data-star=\"4\" style=\"padding-right: 5px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 22px; height: 22px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" data-star=\"5\" style=\"padding-right: 5px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 22px; height: 22px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n    \n<div class=\"kksr-stars-active\" style=\"width: 0px;\">\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" style=\"padding-right: 5px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 22px; height: 22px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" style=\"padding-right: 5px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 22px; height: 22px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" style=\"padding-right: 5px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 22px; height: 22px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" style=\"padding-right: 5px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 22px; height: 22px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" style=\"padding-right: 5px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 22px; height: 22px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n                \n\n<div class=\"kksr-legend\" style=\"font-size: 17.6px;\">\n            <span class=\"kksr-muted\">Rate this post<\/span>\n    <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Easy and Deliciously Flavorful with English Tea This recipe is perfect for summer and becomes even more delightful when paired with English tea.
