Lemon Drizzle Loaf


Lemon Drizzle Cake is a favourite with my fiancé’s Gran. I wanted to give it a go and see how I got on. I decided to make a loaf instead of a tray bake because I think it looks more appealing and to make it extra zingy I added extra lemon juice and zest to the batter. While the loaf baked for the best part of an hour, I made the lemon syrup for drizzling over when it’s still warm and a lemon icing for aesthetic purposes on the finished cake. To me, this lemon drizzle loaf looks really appealing. I couldn’t wait to have a slice! I loved this cake so much; I wanted to make another one for when I visited my parents. For my second attempt, I added poppy seeds to the sponge to add a little bit of sophistication. It went down a treat!
