This lemon curd cake is very moist and easy to make. I also sometimes bake them in muffin tins to make it easy for a packed lunch or picnic. Keeps well for a few days if wrapped in grease-proof paper and aluminum foil.

Ingredients

  • 5 ounces self-rising flour
  • 4 ounces white sugar
  • 1 stick unsalted butter
  • 2 eggs , beaten
  • 2 tablespoons lemon curd , heaped tablespoons
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons superfine sugar
  • 1 tablespoon lemon zest

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a loaf pan with parchment paper.

  2. 2

    Combine flour, sugar, butter, eggs, and lemon curd in a bowl or food processor. Mix well. Place into the prepared pan.

  3. 3

    Bake in the center of the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the middle of the cake comes out clean, 60 to 90 minutes.

  4. 4

    Blend lemon juice, white sugar, and lemon zest together in a bowl while cake is baking.

  5. 5

    Let cake cool in the pan, 2 to 3 minutes. Pour the lemon-sugar topping over the warm cake to let soak. Allow to cool, about 30 minutes. Turn cake out of the pan.
