I did this recipe today... and wow, it was awesome! really soft, nice lemon flavor... perfect.
I tried this today and it went so good on the first try! I baked it on a normal round pan at 150C for 1 hour since I don’t have the tube pan and it still came out fluffy and the texture is almost melt-in-your-mouth! Would definitely save this recipe ❤️
Looks beautiful but the lemon zest should have been more finely grated. Other than that, a very charming cake. I'm going to have a try.

Thanks Cheryl. Lots of success to you.
I just made your cake😊it turned out very spongy and delicious.thank you. Namaste
repetitive reality
Thank you.
What size pan did you use
does anyone know what the baking time would be if I made this in a muffin tray? thanks
edit: the answer is 11 minutes in the same temperature oven. also, use muffin liners (the little paper cup things) instead of greasing the muffin tray, that way the sides won't be brown. as for the water bath, just fill one of the spots on the muffin tray with warm water and fill the rest around it with batter. that way, there is still steam in the oven! :)
Since I read a lot of good comments regarding your lemon cake I will definitely do this and I'm your new subscriber from Sydney Australia..Thanks for the recipe...
Thanks Chris. Success to you.
Hi, This recipe looks amazing. Would want to try it soon. Just a question, I only have a convection microwave oven. Can u pls how to bake this cake in Convection Microwave Oven. Pls
Looks really light and fluffy. I'm so going to make this. Thanks for sharing X

Success to you.
I made this cake today and it was overwhelmingly lemony and oily however, I’m going to make it again replacing the oil with butter and using just one lemon. I also had to turn down oven temperature to 140* for fan assisted. Will let you know results when I have baked it.
Many thanks for recipe.
Catherine , when you said overwhelmingly lemony and oily, I was very surprised by your remarks. You may have measure the ml /ingredients incorrectly. I baked this cake many times and it always turns out good with no trace of oilyness. This cake is actually a very light cake. Your comments are unbelievable.
I weighed and measured everything to gram/ ml and the only thing I can think of is the tin. I used an aluminium 18cm but it was not an easy release. Your tin looked bigger but you say not. I’ve ordered a tin and will try this again as it’s an easy recipe and I like lemon, just not overpowering. My cake looks nothing like yours and it started to burn on top, which I put down to my oven, fan assisted, but that wouldn’t alter the taste. So I’ll make another with your recipe in new tin and then I’ll make another using butter and one large lemon. I’ll let you know results of both. Thanks for reply.
@@catherinedavid3662 the exact same thing happened to me. I followed the recipe too. It was edible but i dont like the oily taste in the cake. I prefer butter in cakes. You should try a recipe for lemon drizzle cake. Much nicer texture to it. ❤

I make my own version of lemon cake and never had a problem and I use butter and one lemon. My cakes turn out like cake, but I have noticed that a lot of other countries use oil to make their cakes spongy like an extra thick pancake, that’s the only way I can describe them. I do like the spongy cake and I’ve done a few of Michael Lims but never had a problem copying his recipes. Anyway I’ll try this recipe again with a few tweaks and let you know. 🇬🇧
@@catherinedavid3662 please give feedback..
Good afternoon ma, can I substitute corn oil for vegetable oil?
And if I don't have mixer will my hand mixing it give me this same texture ma
can someone tell me if the 150c is it correct? just wondering if it needs to be converted.
We usually don't get lemon here...can we use lime .If so how much of lime can we substitute coresspondinly.
Think lime is stronger in flavour...don't know
Moist and so yummy thanks for recipe
Hi may I know what type of oven are you using so I could estimate the baking time and temperature, thank you for the recipe.
Can you please kindly put it in cup measurement, thanks
I think that is too hard for who ever did this this video to do I have seen many videos like this
I have made this cake so many times and it always works for me. I am doing it again today, but my cake seems to be very bubbly on top. Is there a reason why? Will it fix itself when it is done in the oven?
Hi maya, perhaps you could let it bake for another 2-3 minutes more so that the top is firm before bringing the cake out.
Any idea why my cake collapsed in the center past 15mins of baking?
Can I make this cake in conventional oven ?if so what temperature I should use for water bath.Usually I bake my cake in 180 degree.Kindly guide me
Can I use canola or sunflower oil? Without using corn oil?
Hi Urms rs, yes you can. Success to you.
Thank u 4 sharing.i'll try this one next time it looks delicious.🙏
I just made it the texture is amazing but i think it needs vanilla and little more sugar
Thanks for the tips. By all means, your choice. 😀
Zowie. Simple yet fabulous. Also, very nicely crafted video presentation...no narration, yet clear and understandable, even for a hack like me (I'm teaching myself how to quarantine-bake). I cannot wait to try my hand at this one. (Anything lemon!)
How if we just steam or bake without steam ?
looks yum.. will make it for Christmas.. thanks alot
Can you please tell me the temperature and duration if i make this in my microwave convection oven? Please advise
we have to keep this batter along with hot water bath inside the oven for baking ???
How come it doesn't have a crust?
Couple questions: what can I substitute Corn oil? Olive oil have taste so maybe something different?
And what exactly water bath do?
In my opinion in doesn't let top to brown.
Hi there, you can use any vegetable oil such as sunflower oil. Olive oil is not a good idea as it has a strong flavour. Waterbath method adds moist to the oven and helps to even out the temperature. It reduces cracks. The cake will turns out soft and moist.
Quickly can i use an oven allowance the warm water ? And how many minutes? I need answers now quickly ❤️
it looks exactly like what i was looking for for my birthday cake
De rien.
Can i do it without the water bath?
Can I use the same method in Convection Microwave Oven... 🙏 Answer.
When they use grams and ml .. and I use cups and ounces.
I was thinking the same thing I was like not again I'm use to following the other way and not this way of a cake recipe
You can easily just Google it
@@user-ch3ck6xg6e, I have
@@user-ch3ck6xg6e Really?!?
@@Trini4th yes you can I just need the cooking chart I found
Hi. Why need to bake over water bath? Can it be baked directly? Thanks
can i make it in a muffin tin for small cakes?
Hi Rose, you can try.
Pardon my ignorance , but by plain flour, do you mean All purpose flour ?
Yes. Success to you.
thank you it tasted amazing!
You are welcome. Thanks to you too.
Plz put cup measurements
Can i add some grated coconuts in this cake as well mam?
Hi there ! 😁 so my question is .. I don't have electric whisk yet, if I do it manually will it be as good? Thanks
Hi Camillia, you can try. Success
Wow it's super tasty like eating in heaven
Thank you.
As it is a Spongcake.. can it use in this form.. Will it be good. Or we need to do any frosting
Hi Jasmine, you can frost if you like. Success.
So funny what about lemon juice?
Hi, do you use fan setting or top and bottom element?
Looks delicious 👌
you made this on my birthday when i was 7 yrs
So u r 9 now great
@@soundlux4165 Yes I am
Thanks for your vid! I'll make it! So good! I went to my local cake shop in where they say that they will make any cake! When I ask for a simple Lemon cake all they had was a pre fabricated one! For £5! Then we are told support your local store! I rather not.
Elizabeth Faitarone
Hi Elizabeth, thanks for watching the video. I believe you will enjoy making this homemade lemon cake. Lots of success to you!
Hello, I just wanna know what would be the difference if it weren’t baked in a water bath and directly baked in the oven?
Hi, first of all waterbath method adds moisture to the oven and helps to even out the temperature. It reduces crack. The cake usually turns out soft and moist. As for oven, Its fine to use oven just make sure your oven temperature is correct. I would suggest to have a oven thermometer to be sure you have the correct temperature.
Thanks!
In recipe there are 2lemons (the juces will be used) and additional 70ml lomon juice?
Hi Blenderis, squeeze the juice out from the 2 large lemons. Then measure 70ml from there. You need only 70ml lemon juice. Success to you.
Can you use fono to break the cake?
The cake is in the oven, is it meant to look bubbly on top?
Hi maya, just bake 1 or 2 minutes more. It shud be a little firm on top.
I am gonna make this!!
Hi looks a lovely cake could this be used to make cupcakes if yes how many would this recipe yield and would you still bake in a bath and for how long thanking you in advance
Lynette Galbraith
Hi Lynette, if you want to make lemon cupcakes, you can go to my other muffins recipe . Just replace the milk with lemon juice. Then you dont need water bath. Follow the muffins recipe. Success
AngelKitchen Hi thank you so much for the speedy reply I will head straight over to your muffin recipe but I will still make this cake it looks so mouth watering x
Thank you!!!
this looks amazing! I'd like to make a layered cake using swiss meringue buttercream, do you think this cake is too light for stacking and will collapse?
Marina d'Orthez
Hi Marina, just gently spread the swiss meringue on each layer. It wont collapse. Success!
how did it go? need to make 7 layered cakes for a customer this weekennd and lemon was requested but dont have a light recipe which will stack and stay light whilst stacked for a few days, also i freeze all my cakes pre stacking, did you do that with this recipe
Elfie Willow i usually stop at 5 layered otherwise it tips. I’d use a dowel and a cake board in the middle for a 7 layer
@@marinadorthez9612 yes. thank you so much, just wandered about the structural integrity of this specific cake x
How many people does dis serve?
This looks really good but what can I use instead of corn oil?
Hi Maya, you can use cooking oil like sunflower oil. Success
@@AngelKitchen77 thanks
Hi, can I steam the cake instead of baking the cake?
Hi, you can try. Good luck to you.
What if I don’t have corn oil is can I use sunflower oil or rice bean oil or vegetable oil ??
Yes you can but I am not too sure of rice bean oil. Success !
Hello dear great recipe!
I did the cake today and unfortunately it didn’t rise. I don’t know my mistake.
I did preheated the oven before I baked it?! Is this related
Hi Nano, I am sorry to hear that your cake did not rise. There are many reasons why sometimes cakes did not rise. 1) make sure the baking powder is not expired. 2) The folding part is crucial because if you overfold the batter, you will deflate the batter and the cake will not rise well. Gently fold the bottom to the top (do not stir). This is to incorporate air in the mixture and your cake will rise well. 3) Never open the oven door while baking. I always preheat my oven before baking but just make sure the temperature is set on the recipe called for. To be sure, get a oven thermometer because sometimes the oven temperature is different from the oven thermometer.
AngelKitchen Thank you very much for your notes 🙏🏻very much appreciated ! I will repeat it again taking inconsideration you notes hope it will work 👍🏻 BTW we finished the whole cake and it taste very delicious 😋
You are most welcome. Success to you.
@@AngelKitchen77 also when batter is ready dont take time to put in oven..make batter as soon as possible.do not distract in other task while doing it.i once did it and my cake didnt rose cuz i took time to pt in oven once batter was ready
Can cook on oven? And how long?
Hi,may i know is that u only zest 1 of the lemons & didn't use all the juice from 2 lemons ? As usually 2 lemons produce 2tbsp zest & 120ml juice.
Hi Ivy, here is the recipe, 1 tablespoon lemon zest from 1 large lemon and measure 70ml lemon juice from 2 large lemons.
@@AngelKitchen77Thanks a lot !!
Looks amazing, I wonder how do you get your cake flat baked.
Thx4sharing
I think it's the water bath help the cake to bake evenly and flat
i use a glass bowl for baking in oven, would it stil be okay to bake it your way?
Hi there, I have not used glassware for baking. I suggest you use baking pan and you wont go wrong.
What is the substitute for 4 eggs?
Can I use spelt flour?
Hi edi, you can try. If you use spelt flour, you may need to adjust the recipe such as the measurement of the lemon juice, reducing the amount of liquid by 1/4 because spelt flour is more water soluble than plain flour. You can look it up on google over the measurement.
Hi, what size pan did you use please
18cm in diameter. Please checkout the description/recipe below the video.
Looks yummy 😍 can I replace the lemon with lime?
Hi Deborah, you can try.
Hi can I use hand mixer coz I don’t have an electric mixer
Hi Suma, do you mean whisking by hand? If so, you can try.
Just woow 👌👍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Thank you .
Can we not bake it directly in the oven without water tub
Yes you can but temperature and timing will be different.
Cake ko back kyun nh kiya
Do u have to use hot water
Is it ok if we don't put tin in water bath
Hi Madhu, yes you can but temperature and timing will be different.
3:37 so we leave it in the hot water or what plz answerrr❤️
Soundlux yes just put it in the oven like that
Nice
Great recipe. Made it today and everyone who tasted it said it was "amazing", and need to bring the cake to more gatherings. Taste wise, it was on point.
However, the cake came away from the side (sunk in a bit) and was quite brown unlike yours that was pale. Why could that be?
J Isaac
Hi Isaac, thanks for trying out the recipe. You said that the side a bit brown and came off, did you overbaked the cake? Perhaps first you may like to check your oven temperature using a oven thermometer. Every oven is different and baking time may vary. Secondly I hope you bake with waterbath.
Thank you for replying! I set my oven to 160, and also used the waterbath. However, I put in boiling water instead of cold, could that have made the difference?
Regardless of the cause, the cake was still amazing and I will keep trying until I get it perfect lol.
Hi Isaac, temperature should be 150°C. Great success to you.
May i ask what kind of sugar did you use?thanks😁
Hi Ethel Dazo..I use normal white fine sugar.
yummm
Can we use other type of oil? I can't find corn oil here.
Hi Be, you can use any other vegetable oil like sunflower oil etc.
Hi! Can we use melted butter instead of oil?
Hi Ashish yes you can.
Can I use all purpose flour?
Yes you can. Success Emily
@@AngelKitchen77 thank you very much. I'll try this tomorrow 😃 ❤️❤️❤️
Hello mam, can I decorate it with whipped cream?

Any reason for corn oil??
As I don't have it
Hi Preetha , you can use any vegetable/cooking oil.
I want to use butter instead of oil....how much grams of butter shud I take
the same amount. so oil is about 13.6 g per tbsp. = 2.9 tbsp
Can I use lemon crud instead of lemon juice and how much shud I take
ng chloe
Hi Chloe
Sorry for the late reply, I was on vacation. Anyway you can try that using lemon curd. Try using the same amount and taste to your liking. Success
AngelKitchen Any wayThanks you, I'm going to make this
Howcome u didn’t use butter
Hi Abyaney, sorry for the late reply. I prefer to use oil because it makes the cake lighter and butter contains saturated fats.
what if i dont have corn oil is it ok without that
Hi adventure, you can use any cooking oil except olive oil. Success
@@AngelKitchen77 thank you dear😘
