Walnut And Lemon Loaf Cake Recipes

Steps:

• Place dates and margarine in a bowl with boiling water and baking soda. Gently mix with a wooden spoon until margarine has melted and dates are plumped up. Let cool to room temperature, at least 30 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Line a 2-pound loaf pan with parchment paper.
• Combine flour, brown sugar, and walnuts in a separate bowl. Add to bowl with the date mixture. Mix well with a wooden spoon. Add egg and mix in. Spoon mixture into the prepared pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 60 to 75 minutes. Let cool on a wire rack.

Steps:

• Make the cake: Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease a 9x5-inch (22 x 12 cm) loaf pan with nonstick spray and line with parchment paper.
• In a large bowl, cream the butter and sugar with an electric hand mixer until light and fluffy, 3-4 minutes.
• Add the eggs, 1 at a time, and beat to incorporate, scraping down the side of the bowl between additions.
• In a medium bowl, mix together the sour cream, lemon juice and zest, and vanilla until smooth.
• In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
• Alternately add the dry and wet ingredients to the batter, about ⅓ at a time, starting and ending with the dry ingredients. Beat between each addition until just combined.
• Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool completely in the pan, about 1 hour.
• Make the lemon icing: Sift the powdered sugar into a medium bowl. Add the lemon juice and milk and whisk until smooth.
• Pour the icing evenly over the top of the cake, spreading to reach the edges of the pan. Let the glaze set completely, about 30 minutes.
• Transfer to a serving platter, slice, and serve.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Method:.
• Cream butter and 185g sugar.
• Add eggs and milk.
• Add lemon essence and mix well.
• Add flour, baking powder, walnuts and lemon rind.
• Bake at about 185 C (or 350 F) for about 30 minute.
• Mix the juice of the lemon with the half cup of sugar and pour it over the hot cake as soon as you take it out of the oven.
• As ovens vary, check that the cake is cooked by inserting a skewer into it when you think it is cooked. If the skewer comes out clean, it is cooked, but if the skewer comes out gloopy, it needs a bit more baking. If you haven't got a skewer, use a small sharp knife.
