Our lemon tree is really happy right now, and it's giving us loads of fruit. This has got me into baking this simple yet delicious lemon cake quite often. It's light, fluffy, and has just the right amount of lemony sweetness 🍋.
It is delicious as a treat to serve with a cup of coffee or tea, it also makes a great light dessert for those warm summer evenings. Scroll down to have a look at my lemon cake recipe!
