Steps of preparation
- Preheat the oven at 180C. Spray your baking tin with baking spray or use melted butter to cover the borders.
- In a large bowl, beat the sugar and the soft butter with a whisk at medium speed for 5 minutes. It should become fluffy and creamy.
- Add the poppy seeds and combine them.
- Add the eggs and beat well.
- Now add the flour, baking powder, and salt a little at a time, alternating with the milk, 2 tablespoons of lemon juice and 2 drops of lemon essential oil (if you do not have one, add 1 tsp of lemon zest). Beat until just combined, do not overbeat.
- Pour the batter in the oiled baking form and bake for 30 minutes or until golden brown. Let it cool down 10 minutes before releasing the cake from the form.
- Once it has cooled down completely on a wire rack, you can add the lemon glaze. To make it mix one tablespoon of lemon juice with about 3 tablespoons of confectioner’s sugar. Add more sugar if it’s too runny. Pour over the cake and let the glaze flow down the sides.
- Enjoy!
