TWD/BWJ: Lemon Loaf Cake/Bizcocho de limón

I haven't been having a lot of time to post lately, mainly because as I am in the final year of my degree I have a lot of work. Still, I have been baking and one of the things I've made has been this simple loaf cake for TWD.

The texture is great and the flavour too although I did add the zest of just two lemons as I thought three were too much. 


I liked it plain but when I put apricot marmalade on top I enjoyed it even more.

And when I put nutella on top well... it was just amaaaazing!

You can find the recipe in the following blogs: Treats and The Beauty of Life! It's really quick to make and delicious!!! Enjoy :)



No he tenido mucho tiempo para postear ultimamente, sobretodo porque estoy en el último año de mi carrera y tengo mucho trabajo. Aún así he estado cocinando y una de las cosas que he hecho ha sido este pastel de limón para TWD.

La textura está muy bien y el sabor también aunque sí que añadí el zumo de sólo dos limones porque pensé que tres serían demasiado.


Me gustó sin nada pero cuando le puse mermelada de albaricoque encima lo disfruté aún más.

Y cuando le puse nutella encima... eso ya es otro nivel, impresionante!

Podéis encontrar la receta en los blogs Treats y The Beauty of Life. Es muy rápido de hacer y está muy rico! Disfrutad :)

  8. Where is the picture of the lemon loaf cake with Nutella spread over it. Brilliant. Just brilliant. I would have loved a picture of that. In the USA, we just don't think of doing that. Mireia, have you tried the Nutella Tartine (p. 415) in Dorie's "Around My French Table" cookbook. You could substitute your apricot marmalade for Dorie's suggestion of bitter orange marmalade. It's delicious and would be a great snack for those late nights of study. Good luck. Mary

  12. I love this cake and I am sure it would be amazing with Nutella! Lemon and cake and nutella are an incredible combination. It looks like the kind of cake where you could enjoy a slice and then another and another! xx

  13. I only used two lemons too - lemons are expensive here, so I agree that two was enough. Hope the studies are going well.

  14. Why is everything usually good paired with nutella? Apricot jam, that´s a great alternative!

  19. I made lemon curd with the leftover lemons from the recipe. I agree that a spread puts this loaf over the top. Apricot and nutella sound like delicious choices. Good luck with your studies!
