Many people think that cakes take a while to make and require an oven. This video is sure to change your mind. It only takes three or four minutes. The result is a lemon cake that will taste truly fantastic.
INGREDIENTS
- 100g self-raising flour
- 100g caster sugar
- 100g softened butter
- 2 eggs
- Zest of 1 lemon
- 1 tsp vanilla essence
- 4 tbsp lemon curd
METHOD
1. Mix the flour, sugar, butter, eggs, vanilla and lemon zest together until smooth,
2. Transfer the batter into a well-greased, medium-sized microwave proof dish. We used a 0.8 litre sized dish.
3. Microwave for 3-4 minutes (we made this sponge in a 800w microwave in 3 min) until the sponge has risen and is thoroughly cooked – a skewer inserted into the middle should come out clean.
4. Leave it to rest while you scoop the lemon curd into a microwave-safe dish and heat for 30 seconds. Give it a stir so it’s glossy and smooth, then dollop generously over your sponge to serve.
Serve & Enjoy!
