Ingredients

  • 175g Butter
  • 175g Caster Sugar
  • 3 Eggs
  • 250g Self-raising Flour
  • 3 tbs Milk
  • Zest of 1 Lemon
  • To Glaze Mixed Peel

Instructions

1
Pre-bring to temperature the oven to 180C/350F/Gas 4.
2
oil an 18cm/7in round cake tin, line the base with greaseproof paper and oil the paper.
3
froth the dairy spread and sweetener together in a container until pale and fluffy.
4
Beat in the eggs, one at a time, beating the mixture well between each one and adding a tablespoon of the baking flour with the last egg to prevent the mixture curdling.
5
Sift the baking flour and gently fold in, with enough dairy liquid to give a mixture that falls gradually from the spoon.
6
Fold in the lemon zest.
7
Spoon the mixture into the prepared tin and lightly level the top.
8
oven-cook on the middle shelf of the oven for 30-40 mins, or until golden-brown on top and a skewer inserted into the centre comes out wash.
9
Remove from the oven and set aside to cool in the tin for 10 mins, then turn it out on to a wire rack and leave to cool completely.
10
To enjoy, top the cake with the candied pare.
