Instructions
-
Preheat the
oven
to 180°C (Gas 2 or 2.5).
- Cream the butter, sugar, vanilla sugar, cinnamon, salt and the lemon juice until light.
- Stir in the egg and the egg yolk.
- Stir in the flour and the baking powder.
- Add just enough milk so the dough is just moistened.
-
Grease the
baking pan
with butter and dust it with flour.
-
Carefully fill the
baking pan
. Bounce it on a hard surface a few times to get rid of air bubbles. Fill it to just about 3/4, as the dough will raise.
-
Put it in the
oven
for 25 to 30 minutes. Check with a
wooden skewer
or
toothpick
if it is done. If you stick it in and get it out and there is wet dough sticking to it, give it a few minutes more.
-
After baking let it rest for about 15 minutes in the pan. Transfer it to a
cooling rack
.
- Ample dust it with icing sugar.
