Today I’m sharing my delicious Double Gin Lemon Drizzle cake with you. I first made this over on my lifestyle blog, Prettygreentea but it’s just too good (and dairy free) not to share here.
I made the cake with dairy free butter and Malfy gin (because of it’s lovely citrus notes) but you can totally adapt the recipe to your liking.
I plan on sharing a VEGAN version of this cake next week for those of you who can’t or prefer not to eat eggs.
This cake is made with dairy free butter.
Ingredients:
2 eggs
100g dairy free butter
100g sugar
100g self-raising flour
Zest of 1 lemon
Double the recipe if you’re serving more than 4 people.
Drizzle 1:
Juice of 1 lemon
1 or 2 shots of gin – I use Malfy
25g sugar
Drizzle 2:
100g icing sugar – adjust according to consistency
Gin – 1 shot or maybe 2, it all depends on your personal preference
Juice of half a lemon
This cake works perfectly well with just 1 of the drizzle options but if you’re looking for something a little more indulgent then I suggest going all in with the double drizzle.
Method:
Set your oven to 180°
Grab a mixing bowl and then combine together the butter and sugar.
Add the eggs into your mixture one at a time. Keep mixing until everything is combined.
