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.
