In fact, according to its taste and my limited baking knowledge, I would prefer to call it a cake, but the original recipe is just like that, and I don’t want to change it randomly. This batter can also be made into muffins. The shape does not matter, as you like; it doesn't matter what you call it, the key is that it tastes delicious.

The original formula of white granulated sugar is 300 grams. I made it once, and it was too sweet. I lost 100 grams and it feels good. If you like sweet ones, you can use 250 grams of sugar, but I can’t accept more. "

2. Wash the fresh lemon, grind the lemon skin into the powder with a grinder, add 10 grams of caster sugar and mix well.

3. Mix flour, baking powder, and salt through a sieve and set aside.

4. Add softened butter to white granulated sugar, stir with an electric whisk at low speed to let the sugar and oil fuse, and turn to high speed to stir until the butter is fluffy and smooth.

5. Add a room temperature egg, beat it evenly, add another and stir well, let the egg and butter paste fully fuse; pour in room temperature milk little by little, and stir while pouring.

6. Add the flour in three batches, each time you add it, stir well and then add it again; you can use an electric whisk at low speed and stir well. Do not over-mix and cause gluten formation, or use a rubber spatula to gently stir evenly.

7. Add the marinated lemon zest and mix well.

8. Pour the mixed batter into the mold, and the ordinary mold should be oiled for anti-sticking treatment.

9. Preheat the oven at 180°C for the middle and lower layers, and bake for about 35 minutes; pour it out of the mold after it is out of the oven, and let it cool on the grill.

Tips:
1. Eggs and milk should be at room temperature, otherwise the butter will be easy to congeal when cold, which will cause the separation of water and oil.

2. Using medium-gluten flour can make the bread softer; if you use low-gluten flour, the texture of the bread will be too light and easy to crack; if you use bread flour, the texture of the bread will be too tight.
