Lemon drizzle cake. What better comfort food than a moist lemon cake? If you love lemons and cake and are looking for a way to combine the two than this is the recipe for you. I absolutely love citrus flavors, I'm more of a citrus fan then a berry one so this cake is a real winner for me!
This cake is very easy to make as you just put all the ingredients in a bowl then in the oven it goes! I especially love this cake at this time of year as it feels slightly springy yet still comforting as we in England are going through the transition slowly but surely of winter to spring.
