Cakes in America are not just about flour, frosting, and sugar. They have a rich and deep history that develops with the growth of the country. Cakes are synonymous with the celebrations and also come together for happy times. So I also decided to bake a cake on a very special day of my life and share a recipe with you.
Take a round pan of 8 inches and grease it with oil. Afterward, sprinkle flour (maida) over it. Coat it on all of the sides and then tap off the excess.
Now take the baking powder, flour, and salt in a bowl. Mix all of them until combined and then set them aside.
Take eggs, lemon zest, sugar, oil, and yogurt in a bowl and mix it well. Add flour in the bowl gently and do not over mix the ingredients.
Spoon this mixture into a baking pan and bake it in the oven for about 30 to 40 minutes. Take a toothpick and insert it to check if your cake is done or not.
Now remove the cake from the oven and let your cake cool in the tin for almost 10 minutes. Now ease the sides of the cake and then invert it. Cool your cake down.
When your cake is cooling, you can make your icing by mixing up lemon juice and icing sugar. Now pour this icing mixture over the warm cake and your yummy cake is ready.
