Lemon Pound Cake that Melts in Your Mouth
This Lemon Pound Cake is a citrus lover’s dream—light, buttery, and bursting with bright lemon flavor. It’s the kind of dessert that feels special enough for a celebration, yet easy enough to whip up on a weeknight. The combination of lemon zest and fresh lemon juice gives the cake a vibrant flavor, while the buttermilk ensures it’s incredibly moist. Serve it with a dusting of powdered sugar or a drizzle of lemon glaze for an extra touch of sweetness.

Full Recipe:
Ingredients
For the Cake:
3 cups all-purpose flour: Spoon the flour into your measuring cup and level it off with a knife for accurate measurement.
½ teaspoon baking soda: Helps the cake rise and gives it a tender crumb.
½ teaspoon salt: Balances the sweetness and enhances the flavors.
1 cup buttermilk (low-fat is fine): Adds moisture and a slight tang to the cake, making it incredibly soft.
2 tablespoons (packed) grated lemon zest: Provides a concentrated lemon flavor that permeates the cake.
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice: Enhances the lemony taste and adds freshness.
2 sticks (1 cup) unsalted butter, softened: Gives the cake a rich, buttery texture.
2¼ cups granulated sugar: Sweetens the cake and helps create a tender crumb.
3 large eggs: Bind the ingredients together and add richness to the cake.
Instructions
Preheat the Oven and Prepare the Pan:
Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C). Grease a 9×5 inch loaf pan with butter or cooking spray, and lightly dust it with flour. This will help prevent the cake from sticking and ensure it releases easily from the pan.
Mix the Dry Ingredients:
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Set this mixture aside. These dry ingredients will give the cake structure and help it rise evenly.
Prepare the Wet Ingredients:
In a separate small bowl, combine the buttermilk, grated lemon zest, and fresh lemon juice. The lemon zest adds a burst of citrus flavor, while the buttermilk keeps the cake moist and tender.
Cream the Butter and Sugar:
In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to cream the softened butter and granulated sugar together until the mixture is light and fluffy. This should take about 3-4 minutes. Creaming the butter and sugar properly is essential for creating a light and airy cake.
Add the Eggs:
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Make sure each egg is fully incorporated before adding the next. This step ensures a smooth batter and helps the cake rise properly.
Combine the Ingredients:
With the mixer on low speed, add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture in three additions, alternating with the buttermilk mixture. Begin and end with the dry ingredients. Mix just until combined, being careful not to overmix, as this can make the cake dense.
Bake the Cake:
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula. Bake in the preheated oven for 60-75 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. If the top of the cake starts to brown too quickly, cover it loosely with aluminum foil.
Cool the Cake:
Once the cake is done baking, remove it from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes. Then, carefully transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely. This cooling period allows the cake to set and makes it easier to slice.
Serve and Enjoy:
Slice the cake and serve it as is, or with a dusting of powdered sugar or a drizzle of lemon glaze. The cake is delicious on its own, but a glaze can add an extra layer of sweetness and lemon flavor.
Tips for Success
Use Fresh Lemons: For the best flavor, use fresh lemons for both the zest and juice. The zest contains essential oils that give the cake its bright, citrusy aroma.
Don’t Overmix: When combining the wet and dry ingredients, mix just until everything is combined. Overmixing can result in a tough cake.
Room Temperature Ingredients: Make sure your butter and eggs are at room temperature before starting. This helps them incorporate more easily and evenly into the batter.

A: Absolutely! Wrap the cooled cake tightly in plastic wrap and then in aluminum foil. It can be frozen for up to 3 months. Thaw at room temperature before serving.

Q: What can I use instead of buttermilk?
A: If you don’t have buttermilk on hand, you can make a substitute by mixing 1 cup of milk with 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or white vinegar. Let it sit for 5 minutes before using.

For the best fish and chips, choose the freshest fish you can find, frozen is also fine but make sure it is thoroughly defrosted and dried with kitchen paper first. Prepare the batter and only dip the fish at the last moment before plunging into hot oil to fry. This way you will always have a light and crisp snap to the batter. In a large roomy bowl mix all but two tablespoons of the flour with the 2 ounces of cornstarch and 1 teaspoon baking powder.

Season lightly with a tiny pinch of salt and pepper. Using a fork, and whisking continuously, add the beer and the water to the flour mixture and continue mixing until you have a thick, smooth batter. Place the batter in the fridge to rest for between 30 minutes and an hour. Cut the potatoes into 1-centimetre slices, then slice these into 1-centimetre-wide chips. Place the chips into a colander and rinse under cold running water. Place the washed chips into a pan of cold water, bring to a gentle boil and simmer for 3 to 4 minutes.

Drain carefully through a colander then dry with kitchen paper. Keep in the fridge covered with kitchen paper until needed. Meanwhile, lay the fish fillets on a sheet of kitchen paper and pat dry. Season very lightly with a little sea salt. Heat the oil to 250 F in a deep-fat fryer or large, deep saucepan. Blanch the chips a few handfuls at a time in the fat for a couple of minutes. Do not brown them. Once the chips are slightly cooked remove them from the fat and drain.

Keep to one side then place the 2 tablespoons of flour reserved from the batter mix into a shallow bowl. Toss each fish fillet in the flour and shake off any excess. Dip into the batter. Then carefully lower each fillet into the hot oil. Fry for approximately 8 minutes, or until the batter is crisp and golden, turning the fillets from time to time with a large slotted spoon.

Using the same slotted spoon once cooked, remove the fillets from the hot oil, drain on kitchen paper, cover with greaseproof paper and keep hot. Heat the oil to 400 F then cook the chips until golden and crisp about 5 minutes. Serve immediately with the hot fish accompanied by your favourite condiment.

Ingredients;

• 2 ounces/55 grams all-purpose flour
• 2 ounces/55 grams cornstarch
• Salt
• Black pepper
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/3 cup sparkling water
• 4 (7-ounce) fish fillets
• 2 pounds of potatoes
• 1-litre vegetable oil

Instructions;

1. 1. Gather the ingredients.

1. 1. In a large roomy bowl mix all but two tablespoons of the flour, cornflour, and baking powder. Season lightly with a tiny pinch of salt and pepper.
   2. Using a fork, and whisking continuously, add the beer and the water to the flour mixture and continue mixing until you have a thick, smooth batter. Place the batter in the fridge to rest for between 30 minutes and an hour.
   3. Cut the potatoes into 1-centimetre slices, then slice these into 1-centimetre-wide chips. Place the chips into a colander and rinse under cold running water.
   4. Place the washed chips into a pan of cold water, bring to a gentle boil and simmer for 3 to 4 minutes.
   5. Drain carefully through a colander then dry with kitchen paper. Keep in the fridge covered with kitchen paper until needed.
   6. Meanwhile, lay the fish fillets on a sheet of kitchen paper and pat dry. Season very lightly with a little sea salt.
   7. Heat the oil to 250 F in a deep-fat fryer or large, deep saucepan. Blanch the chips a few handfuls at a time in the fat for a couple of minutes.
   8. Do not brown them. Once the chips are slightly cooked remove them from the fat and drain. Keep to one side.
   9. Place the 2 tablespoons of flour reserved from the batter mix into a shallow bowl. Toss each fish fillet in the flour and shake off any excess.
   10. Dip into the batter.

1. Carefully lower each fillet into the hot oil. Fry for approximately 8 minutes, or until the batter is crisp and golden, turning the fillets from time to time with a large slotted spoon.
2. Using the same slotted spoon once cooked, remove the fillets from the hot oil, drain on kitchen paper, cover with greaseproof paper and keep hot.
3. Heat the oil to 400 F then cook the chips until golden and crisp about 5 minutes.
4. Serve immediately with the hot fish accompanied by your favourite condiment. The debate always rages over what to serve.

How to Make Cheesy Chicken & Broccoli Stuffed Shells
Let’s get cooking! This recipe comes together in just a few easy steps:

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C)
Cook your pasta shells according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and let them cool slightly so they’re easier to handle
In a bowl, combine diced chicken, steamed broccoli, and 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese. Season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder to taste
Stuff each shell with about 2 tablespoons of the filling and arrange them in a lightly greased baking dish
In a separate bowl, whisk together the cream of chicken soup and milk. Pour this mixture evenly over the stuffed shells
Sprinkle the remaining ½ cup of cheese on top
Bake for 25 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and slightly golden. Cover loosely with foil if you want to avoid browning
Let cool for a few minutes before serving—if you can wait!
