Lemon Drizzle Cake

  1. Cut a rectangle of non-stick baking parchment to fit the base and sides of a 30 x 23 x 4 cm roasting tin.
  2. Grease the tin and line with the paper, pushing it neatly into the corners of the tin.
  3. Preheat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4
  4. Measure all the ingredients for the tray bake into a large bowl and beat well for about 2 minutes, until well blended
  5. Turn the mixture into the prepared tin, scraping the sides of the bowl with a plastic spatula to remove all of the mixture.
  6. Level the top gently with the back of the spatula
  7. Bake in the middle of the oven for about 35-40 minutes, or until the cake springs back when lightly pressed and is beginning to shrink away from the sides of the tin
  8. Leave the cake to cool in the tin for a few minutes then lift it out of the tin while still in its lining paper.
  9. Carefully remove the paper and put the tray bake onto a wire rack placed over a tray
  10. To make the crunchy topping, mix the lemon juice and granulated sugar in a small bowl to give a runny consistency.
  11. Spoon this mixture evenly over the tray bake whilst it is still just warm.
  12. Cut into squares when cold and store in an airtight tin
