We always find the fresh tangy flavour of lemons is an antidote to any gloomy weather and having some particularly large fragrant fruits to hand, we decided to make this cake as a pick-me-up.
\nA slice in the afternoon is lovely with a cup of freshly infused green or Earl Grey tea.[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_4,1_2,1_4″ use_custom_gutter=”on” gutter_width=”2″ padding_mobile=”off” column_padding_mobile=”on” admin_label=”Row” _builder_version=”4.16″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” custom_margin=”-21px||||false|false” make_fullwidth=”off” use_custom_width=”off” width_unit=”on” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text admin_label=”Ingredients Heading” _builder_version=”4.16″ text_font_size=”18px” header_3_font=”Arvo|700|||||||” header_3_font_size=”20px” background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

In a large bowl, mix the flour and salt together, place in the butter and rub in using your fingers until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs. Tip in the sugar and grate the zest from the two lemons directly into the bowl and stir to mix. Add the eggs and squeeze in the juice of the two lemons. Mix together until you have a soft batter, but be careful not to overwork the mixture.<\/p>\n Spoon the batter into the loaf tin, smoothing it out evenly. Place in the oven and bake for 45-55 minutes, or until golden brown and well risen. To check that the cake is cooked properly, insert a skewer into the centre. When the skewer is pulled out it should be clean.<\/p>\n Leave the cake to cool in the tin for 5 minutes. Meanwhile, stir the lemon juice and sugar together to make the topping.

Method<\/h3>\n
\nGrease a 900g (2lb)) loaf tin with butter and line with greaseproof paper, leaving some overhang.<\/p>\n
\nPrick the cake surface, all over using a skewer or fork, then slowly spoon over the sugar and lemon mixture. This will sink in.
\nLeave the cake to completely cool, then lift out by holding the edges of the greaseproof paper.[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/artisanfoodtrail.co.uk\/recipes\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Mortiers-Earl-Grey-Teabags-800px.jpg” alt=”Lemon Loaf Cake recipe 2 \u2013 The Artisan Food Trail” title_text=”Mortiers Earl Grey Teabags 800px” align_tablet=”center” align_phone=”” align_last_edited=”on|desktop” admin_label=”Image” _builder_version=”4.17.3″ use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid” animation=”off” sticky=”on” always_center_on_mobile=”on” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/artisanfoodtrail.co.uk\/recipes\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Food-Seasonality-Icons.jpg” alt=”Food Seasonality Icon” url=”https:\/\/artisanfoodtrail.co.uk\/foods-in-season\/” show_bottom_space=”off” align_tablet=”center” align_phone=”” align_last_edited=”on|desktop” admin_label=”Food Seasonality Image” _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_margin=”7px||||false|false” use_border_color=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text admin_label=”Foods in Season text” _builder_version=”4.16″ text_font=”Arvo|700|||||||” text_font_size=”16px” header_3_font=”Arvo|700||on|||||” header_3_text_color=”#853d01″ header_3_font_size=”17px” background_color=”rgba(112,191,227,0.27)” background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” custom_padding=”13px|13px|9px|13px|false|false” link_option_url=”https:\/\/artisanfoodtrail.co.uk\/foods-in-season\/” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\nFoods in Season<\/h3>\n
