Lemon Drizzle Loaf

This zingy lemon drizzle loaf is perfect to quickly rustle up and will taste delicious, to make this you will need:

3 eggs

170g self raising flour

170g caster sugar

170g butter

1tsp baking powder

110g icing sugar

1 tbsp granulated sugar

2 lemons

Method:

1. Begin by pre heating the oven to 180 degrees Celsius, mix together the eggs, flour, sugar, butter, baking powder and the zest of the two lemons. Pour the mixture into a loaf tin (or you can make it into a cake or tray bake by choosing whichever tin takes your fancy). 

  

2. Bake in pre heated oven for 25 minutes or until golden and a skewer inserted comes out clean.

3. Whilst the cake is cooking, prepare the icing. Mix together the icing sugar and juice of one and a half  lemons until all combined.

4. While the loaf is still warm, poke holes into the cake with a knife or a skewer and pour over your icing so that it will seep into the cake (yum!).

5. Mix the granulated sugar with the remaining half of the lemon juice, and pour over the top. This will create a delicious sugary crust.

Enjoy!
