Ingredients<\/h5>\n \n - FOR THE CAKES:<\/li>\n
- 100 g caster sugar<\/li>\n
- 125 g butter<\/li>\n
- 1 pinch of sea salt <\/li>\n
- 2 eggs<\/li>\n
- 1 large TBS poppy seeds<\/li>\n
- Juice of \u00bd organic lemon<\/li>\n
- Zest of an organic lemon<\/li>\n
- 140 g flour<\/li>\n
- \u00bc of a yeast package <\/li>\n
- 20 g almond powder<\/li>\n
- FOR THE ROYAL ICING:<\/li>\n
- 75 g caster sugar<\/li>\n
- \u00bd egg white<\/li>\n
- Juice of \u00bd a lemon<\/li>\n
- 1 tsp poppy seeds (I actually hadn\u2019t used any)<\/li>\n <\/ul>\n <\/div><\/div>\n

\n
Directions<\/h5>\n \n - \n Step 1<\/span>\n Preheat the oven to 210\u00b0 (T 7), line the cake mould with wax paper and soften the butter in a double boiler.<\/span>\n <\/li>\n
- \n Step 2<\/span>\n Whisk the eggs and sugar in a bowl until the preparation turns light yellow, then add the softened butter and whisk again. Add the lemon zest, the juice of \u00bd the lemon, the poppy seeds TBS, the flour, the yeast, the almond powder and the sea salt. Mix thoroughly all the ingredients before pouring into the cake moulds.<\/span>\n <\/li>\n
- \n Step 3<\/span>\n Bake for 10 minutes at 210\u00b0 and then lower the temperature to 180\u00b0. Keep baking for 20 to 25 minutes. If you have doubts, insert the blade of your kitchen knife at the centre of the cake: it\u2019s done when the blade comes out dry. Wait for the cakes to cool down before covering them with icing.<\/span>\n <\/li>\n
- \n Step 4<\/span>\n In a bowl, insert the egg white to the icing sugar and thoroughly whisk until the mixture becomes a white shiny foam. Add the lemon juice and mix for about 5 minutes. The icing is ready when you get the shape of a nice white beak upon lifting the whisk. You may then spread it over the cakes with a spatula or use an icing bag if you need to be more accurate.<\/span>\n <\/li>\n
- \n Step 5<\/span>\n This cake is most yummy and smooth when you eat it the day you bake it. However, you also may store it in the refrigerator a few days. It will be a bit drier but will still have the same exquisite flavour and texture and its incredible taste. Just bring it out of the fridge a little bit ahead so it\u2019s not too cold.<\/span>\n <\/li>\n <\/ul>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
