Lemon cake


This is actually a very classic lemon cake that is baked in a springform pan. But now, just before Easter, I used a silicone Easter bunny mold for it! But this hasn't changed the baking time.


Ingredients

200 g flour
2 tsp baking soda
200 g sugar
200 ml sour cream
100 g melted margarine
4 eggs
1 Tbsp grated lemon peel

4 Tbsp sugar
4 Tbsp lemon juice
1 Tbsp grated lemon peel


Preparation

In a large bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder and sugar.


Add the sour cream, melted margarine and eggs, grate the lemon over them...



...and mix everything into a smooth dough.


Pour the mixture into a springform pan lined with baking paper or greased (I used a silicone mold here and sprinkled it a little with breadcrumbs)...



... and bake in a preheated oven at 350 °F (180 °C) for about 45 minutes (test with a toothpick!).


Then take the cake out of the oven and let it cool slightly.

Heat the sugar, lemon juice and grated lemon peel in a small saucepan over low heat.



Pour the mixture slowly and carefully over the still warm cake and then let it cool.



Just for fun, I gave my Easter bunny an eye made of icing that I still had in stock.

With this in mind: Bon appetit - verði sér að góðu!
