Instructions
- Place into a bowl the butter and the caster sugar and use a hand mixer to mix until the fats are creamy and don’t have a gritty sugar texture.
- Next crack into the bowl your eggs, add your vanilla and your lemon zest and mix slowly with the hand mixer.
- Then add in slowly the flour and the milk along with the lemon juice from your medium lemons. Then mix well until you have a creamy lemon cake batter.
- Pour the cake batter into two silicone baking pans and then place the silicone into the air fryer.
- Air fry for 15 minutes at 180c/360f, then 10 minutes at 170c/340f followed by a final 10 minutes at 160c/320f. Or until a cocktail stick comes out clean. Then remove the lemon cakes from the air fryer and allow to cool, before peeling the silicone away from the cakes.
- Place the icing sugar and lemon juice from the two large lemons into a small bowl and mix with a spoon until you have a creamy, little wet icing.
- Use a spoon to spoon on the lemon drizzle icing. Its easiest to do 4 left to right drizzles and then 4 top to bottom. Kind of like you are getting ready for a game of noughts and crosses. Then sprinkle with a little extra lemon zest.
Notes
- Icing. Note that icing sugar in the US is called confectioner’s sugar.
- Quantity. This lemon cake batter made enough for two cakes. I made one into a round lemon drizzle cake and the second into a copycat Mr Kipling Lemon Slices. You can half the quantities and make just the round cake for 12, sandwich the two cake rounds into one large cake or keep it as two separates.
- Zest. When doing the rind from the lemon aim for a very small grater. There is nothing worse than huge bits of lemon zest in your lemon cake.
