Ingredients list for Lime Poppy Seed Cake
- 2 cups (200g) all-purpose flour
- 4 limes
- 4 eggs
- 5 1/3 oz (150g) butter
- 3/4 cup (150g) sugar
- 1 tablespoon of baking powder
- 2 tablespoons poppy seeds
Directions
1. Preheat your oven to 410°F (210°C).
2. Wash, dry and zest 3 limes, then squeeze the juice. Cut the remaining lime into thin slices.
3. Combine butter and sugar, then add the eggs one by one.
4. Stir in the flour, baking powder and poppyseeds, then add the lemon juice and zest. Mix well.
5. Butter and flour your cake pan (here I used a Bundt pan) and pour the batter.
6. Top with lemon slices and bake at 410°F (210°C) for 10 minutes. Then turn your oven to 300°F (150°C) and bake for 30 minutes more. If the cake is done, a skewer of knife blade inserted into the centre of the cake should come out clean.
