Description

Thermomix Lemon Drizzle Cake


Ingredients

Units Scale

2 lemons - thin peelings of skin and juice (approx. 80 g)

300 g caster sugar

175 g butter, unsalted - soft 3 large eggs 175 g self-raising flour 20 g milk


Instructions

Preheat oven to 180°C and line a loaf tin (900 g/2 lb) with baking paper.

  1. Place lemon peel and 50 g sugar in mixing bowl then grate 10 sec/speed 10.
    Scrape down sides of mixing bowl with spatula then grate again 10 sec/speed 10. Scrape down sides of mixing bowl with spatula.
  2. Add 125 g sugar, butter and eggs then mix 20 sec/speed 5.
  3. Add flour and milk then mix 15 sec/speed 5. Scrape down sides of mixing bowl with spatula then mix again 15 sec/speed 5. Transfer batter to prepared tin and bake for 45-50 minutes (180°C) until a skewer inserted in centre comes out clean (see tip). Meanwhile, clean mixing bowl.
  4. Leave cake to rest for 10 minutes in tin while preparing lemon drizzle.
  5. I do this bit in a bowl and not in the Thermomix… To do in your thermomix: Place remaining 125 g sugar and lemon juice in mixing bowl then grind 8 sec/speed 8.
  6. While cake is still warm, prick deeply with a skewer. Remove from tin and transfer to a plate then pour glaze over the top allowing it to seep in and run down sides.
  7. Leave to cool completely before cutting in slices to serve
