Lemon Drizzle Cake Recipe

August 28, 2016 by Amy Le Pelley 298 Comments

It is that time of year again!  The Great British Bake Off is BACK!

I am a massive fan of the show and have even joined a ‘Bake Off’ Fantasy league team in which a group of us compete against other teams and each other to guess which contestants will do well and which will throw their cake out of the pan.  This week I thought Lee would be Star Baker so clearly not a great start, as he was the first one evicted from the show.

This year I have decided to take my love of the show one step further and Bake Along with the contestants.

Week 1 was cake week and contestants were asked to make their own twist on a basic drizzle cake.

I used Mary Berry’s Lemon Drizzle Recipe but I added poppy seeds and a lemon icing.

In true Great British Bake Off style things didn’t go that smoothly.

Firstly, my scales stopped working so I had to guesstimate the weight of the ingredients.

I also forgot to add the poppy seeds so had to add them after it had been in the oven for 5 mins (not ideal!)

I am pretty sure that Paul Hollywood be unimpressed with the slightly wonky shape.

14138321_10153664748406207_1287417616_n

I made the icing by simply adding some lemon juice to icing sugar until I got a nice drizzle consistency.

Mary Berrys recipe makes a fabulously light sponge, which is melt in the mouth yummy and no soggy bottom in sight!

It definitely passed the taste test!
