Ingredients

  • 130g butter
  • 3/4 teaspoon vanilla bean paste
  • 1 1/4 cup caster sugar
  • 3 eggs
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 cup plain flour
  • 1/2 cup self-raising flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • Zest of 1 lemon

A delicious recipe and so simple. Great with a cup of tea on a lazy afternoon.

Method

Preheat oven to approximately 150 degrees (Celsius).

Prepare and grease a 24cm round cake tin.

Add all ingredients together into one mixing bowl. Using an electric mixer on low speed, combine ingredients. Then increase to medium speed and mix for approximately 2 minutes until cake mixture is smooth.

Pour cake mixture into greased cake tin and bake for about 75 minutes. Cake is ready when a skewer is inserted into the centre and comes out clean.

Allow cake to cool, and then dust the top with icing sugar to serve.
