Monday, October 26th, 2009

This is a great lemon loaf for every day lunch boxes, morning teas, and similar. Does not do overly well in fan bake oven apparently. This was submitted by Vanessa Liddell :)

Ingredients:

  • 100g Butter
  • 1 Cup Caster Sugar
  • 2 Eggs
  • 1 Cup Self-Raising Flour
  • ½ Cup Flour
  • ½ Tsp Salt
  • ½ Cup Milk
  • Rind off one Lemon

Topping

  • ¼ Cup Caster Sugar
  • Juice of one Lemon

Instructions

  1. Add butter and sugar together and beat until creamy.
  2. Add eggs one at a time, beating quite well between each one.
  3. Add sifted flour (normally I use Self-Raising flour and add 1 heaped teaspoon of baking
    powder).
  4. Add salt, milk and rind of one lemon
  5. Put into a greased loaf tin with a lining in the bottom,
  6. place in a hot oven at 180 degrees for 45 minutes.

Topping:

  1. Mix Caster Sugar and lemon together until dissolved (I
    usually put in more juice from another half lemon).
  2. Pour over cake when you take it out of the oven (should be quite hot).
