Ingredients
2 cups of wheat flour
1 teaspoon of baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup butter (at room temperature)
1 and 1/2 cup sugar
3 eggs
Juice and zest of 2 lemons
1 cup of natural yogurt
1/2 cup confectioners’ sugar
1 lemon juice
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 180°C and grease a cake tin with butter and flour.
- In a large bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
Mix well and set aside. - In another bowl, beat the butter and sugar until you obtain a creamy mixture.
- Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
- Add the lemon juice and zest to the mixture and mix until combined.
- Gradually add the flour mixture to the butter mixture, alternating with the yogurt.
Start and end with the flour mixture, mixing just until all ingredients are well incorporated. - Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake in the preheated oven for approximately 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
- While the cake is baking, prepare the lemon frosting.
In a bowl, mix the icing sugar with the lemon juice until you get a homogeneous coating. - Once the cake is baked, remove it from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes in the pan.
Then, turn out the cake onto a serving plate. - Drizzle the cake with lemon icing while it is still warm.
Bake with a second layer of topping if desired. - Let the cake cool completely before cutting and serving.
