// Lemon cake

Fluffy like the clouds

Here is the recipe for this lemon cake 🍋 that is not only very fluffy but also delicious 😋 and easy to make 🤗. I hope you enjoy it and like it as much as I do 😋🍋🌼

Ingredients

🍋3 eggs @pazodevilane

🍋240g sugar

🍋180 ml sunflower oil

🍋Zest and juice of 1 lemon

🍋260g flour for cakes

🍋10g baking powder @royal_postres

🍋100 ml whole milk

🍋1 very small teaspoon of lemon essence or aroma (optional) @dr.oetker_reposteria

Elaboration

🥧Preheat the oven to 180ºC and grease a 24 cm mold with butter.

🥧In a bowl beat the eggs with the sugar until you get a creamy mix.

🥧Add the oil, aroma or essence of lemon (optional), zest and lemon juice, and continue beating.

🥧Add little by little the flour previously sifted with the baking powder, while beating until everything is well integrated.

🥧Finally, add the milk and beat until there's a uniform mix left.

🥧Pour the cake mix into the mold and bake at 180ºC 35 minutes or until when you click the cake with a toothpick it comes out completely clean.

🥧Remove from the oven and let cool on a grid for 20 or 30 minutes and unmold.

🥧You can sprinkle with icing sugar, make a glaze or without anything it looks great.

Note

🌼The flour I use is self-rising flour (Argentina) but any cake flour will work.

🌼You can replace the oil with mild olive oil if you don't like sunflower oil.

🌼The aroma of lemon is optional, since the zest together with the natural lemon juice give it a very powerful and really delicious flavor. I put it on because the lemon flavor drives me crazy 😋🤪
