Sunday cake

Sometimes I don't want to bake that much, but without cake at the weekend, I'm missing something...

So here we have an uncomplicated, quick Sunday cake - it takes around an hour in the oven, but it's quick and easy to put together and we definitely like it!

Ingredients

Ingredients for the dough

3 eggs

200 g brown sugar

175 g butter

150 g flour
2 Tbsp potato flour

1 tsp baking powder

2 Tbsp milk

1 organic lemon

Ingredients for the glaze

3 - 4 Tbsp lemon juice

120 g powdered sugar

Preparation

Preheat the oven to 350 °F (180 °C) upper/lower heat.

Mix the eggs with the sugar in a bowl until foamy.

Then the butter...

...and add the remaining ingredients for the dough and work everything into a smooth dough. (You only need the peel of the lemon for the dough; the juice is then used for the glaze!)

Line a loaf pan with baking paper, pour the dough into it...

...and then let the cake bake for about 60 minutes at 350 °F (180 °C) upper and lower heat (test with a toothpick!).

Then take the cake out of the oven, let it cool down a little and then carefully lift it out of the tin.

Mix the powdered sugar with 3 - 4 tablespoons of the squeezed lemon juice...

...and pour over the still warm cake.

I then added some grated lemon peel over the fresh icing, just to make it look that cheerful yellow.
