Lemony Pound Cake


why i choose Ree's Pound Cake? Simply because of the Sprite, i wonder how the pound cake taste like with soda drink. Well, the outcome wasn't satisfied me, the golden crust wasn't form on my cake. But i guess the fault wasn't due to the ingredient, was the setting that i set up on my new bought OVEN (yes, i bought an oven finally!)


anyway, i will definitely re-bake in future, to get the shinny golden crust like Ree bake!

Ingredient:
  • 100g margarine 
  • 100g soft brown sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/2 lemon juice with zest (replace butter and lemon flavoring)
  • 140g all purpose flour
  • 100ml Sprite
grease and flour your baking pan.

cream butter.

add sugar a little by little.
 cream until fluffy!

add eggs, 1 at a time.

grate zest and squeezed out juice.

sift in the flour.

lastly pour in the SPRITE ... and mix well.

Mine bake in
  • 30 minutes time
  • 160 Celsius
  • mode control -----> upper&lower heating
  • convection function
  • wire rack on bottom 
  • pre-heat oven in 20 minutes time 

cake texture still pretty soft but partially fluffy on top, moist on bottom. Eliminating flavoring and switching it to a real lemon is a correct decision made. The zesty flavor from the lemon itself is matching so well with pound cake.
