Instructions

Creating Paul Hollywood’s Lemon Bliss Cake is an organized process when you follow these steps:

1. Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 170°C (340°F) and grease a 20cm round cake tin.

3. Add Eggs: Incorporate the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
4. Add Lemon Zest: Stir in the lemon zest to infuse the batter with that bright flavor.
5. Combine Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
6. Mix Flour and Milk: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the milk, until fully combined.
7. Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared cake tin and level the top. Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes or until a skewer inserted comes out clean.
8. Cool the Cake: Once baked, let the cake cool in the tin for 15 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
9. Make the Lemon Glaze: In a bowl, mix the icing sugar with the lemon juice until smooth and glossy.
10. Glaze the Cake: Once cooled, pour the glaze over the cake, allowing it to drip down the sides for a beautiful finish.

By following these clear steps, you can create an absolutely delicious cake that showcases that iconic lemon flavor perfectly!
