Please try this, it’s completely worth it! And very cute too🥰 I was curious about how some purple icing would look like in a loaf and I did this recipe twice🤣 If you want to make a couple of loafs too, just do the recipe two times ✨

🌸Ingredients

1. Loaf
– 120g. All purpose flour
– 120g. Butter (melted)
– 120g. Caster sugar
– 2 Eggs
– 1 Big lemon or 2 little lemons (zest and juice)
– 5 Drops of vanilla extract
– 1 Tsp. of baking powder
2. Icing
– 300g. Icing sugar
– 1 Egg white
– 1 Tbsp. of lemon juice
*In the purple icing I use some food colorant

🌸Steps:

1. In a bowl, mix the melted butter, the sugar, the lemon zest and lemon juice and the vanilla extract.
2. Add the egg yolks to the mixture and pour the egg whites into a separate bowl.
3. Beat the egg whites until stiff (this is very important).
4. Add the melted butter, sugar, lemon and vanilla mixture and mix gently until everything integrates.
5. Put the flour and the baking powder in a bowl and mix.
6. Sift the flour and baking powder into the batter while mixing.
7. Grease a mold with butter and bake for 40-50 minutes at 180ºC.
8. When the cake is at room temperature, pour the icing on top and garnish with lemon zest and lavender.
