Ingredients

  • 225 vegan butter
  • 225 caster sugar
  • 275 g self-raising flour
  • 220 ml soy milk
  • Lemon zest lemon x 2
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Lemon drizzle
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • 65 g caster sugar

Method

  1. Preheat your oven to 180° C | 350° F and line a loaf tin with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, beat together the vegan butter and lemon zest.
  3. Next, add the sugar and vanilla extract and beat them together.
  4. Tip in the self-raising flour, and then slowly add the milk while still stirring.
  5. Pour the batter into your loaf tin and bake the cake for 30 - 35 minutes or until a skewer comes out clean when inserted.
  6. Allow the cake to fully cool in the tin before mixing together your lemon drizzle and pouring it over the cake. Optional, you could poke holes in the cake with a skewer to allow the lemon drizzle to sink into the sponge.
