Ingredients
- 220 g Yoghurt
- 220 g Caster sugar
- 3 Large eggs
- 2 Lemons, zested
- 220 g Self-raising flour
- 1 tbsp Flour
- 180 g Blueberries
For the drizzle:
- 90 g Caster sugar
- 1 Lemon, juiced
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 160℃
- Line a 1 kg loaf tin with baking paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, add the yoghurt, sugar, eggs and lemon zest. Use a whisk to beat it until it is well combined.
- Add the self-raising flour and fold it through until you have a cake batter.
- Toss the blueberries with the tbsp of flour, this will help to prevent the blueberries from sinking to the bottom of the cake. Fold them carefully into the cake mix.
- Pour the mixture into the lined loaf tin, and bake it for 1 hour-1 hour 10 minutes or until a skewer comes out clean.
- Take it out of the oven and leave it to stand for ten minutes in the tin.
- Meanwhile, make the lemon glaze by mixing the caster sugar with the lemon juice.
- Place the cake onto a cooling rack, then use a fork to prick holes in the top. Pour the lemon drizzle over the top of the warm sponge, then leave it to cool completely.
- Cut it into portions and enjoy.
