Rosie_0801 Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 LEMON CAKE 3 lime sized unwaxed lemons, use two if they are larger 6 eggs 250g sugar 300g ground almonds 1 heaped tsp baking powder (some have wheat in, so check packet) *1. Put the lemons in a pan and cover with cold water, bring to the boil, cover and cook for two hours. Keep checking the water and add more when necessary. 2. Drain and cool, then remove pips and put the rest into the blender. 3. Set oven to 190C/ 375F. Spray a loaf tin, line roughly with paper so it’ll be easier to get out, then spray the paper. 4. Add the eggs, sugar, almonds and baking powder to the fruit pulp and blend until combined. 5. Pour into the tin and bake for about 1 hour in the centre of the oven. After the first 40 mins, cover it with foil to prevent over-browning. Test with a skewer to see if it’s cooked. If the skewer comes out clean, remove cake from the oven and leave to cool in the tin before turning it out onto a rack. :) Rosie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
