Easy and Moist Lemon Cake Recipe

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease a round cake pan or line it with parchment paper.
  2. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, sugar, and a pinch of salt until well combined. Add the melted butter and lemon zest, mixing until smooth.
  3. Combine Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, sift together the flour and baking powder.
  4. Combine Mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with the milk. Mix until just combined; be careful not to overmix.
  5. Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top. Bake for about 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  6. Cool and Serve: Let the cake cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring it to a wire rack. Serve it warm or at room temperature.

Tips
