Lemon Cake Secrets
To make the cupcake delicious, you need to take into account that each cooking method has its own “zest”, so you should not change the recipe without special need. For example, if we are talking about the fact that the ingredients of the dough just need to be mixed, you should not beat it, because then the cake will crumble and lose its dense structure. Conversely, if the recipe suggests that the products need to be whipped before baking, you must do so, otherwise the dessert will turn out to be sticky and less magnificent.
If the recipe calls for lemon zest, care must be taken to ensure that it is of the highest quality. Many people think that the zest is the thin skin of a lemon, but this is not entirely true. Strictly speaking, only the bright yellow part of the skin of this fruit can be called zest. Therefore, the best zest is obtained if it is made on a very sharp fine grater, literally several times running a lemon peel over the blades. Then you can get everything essential oils contained in the lemon, but avoid the bitterness that comes from the white part of the peel. Naturally, before removing the zest from the lemon, the fruit must be thoroughly washed and then scalded with boiling water, then the lemon will become more fragrant.
The taste of the cake can be varied various additives, most often the recipe includes nuts, chocolate and candied fruits. But additives can be more exotic, for example, dried cranberries, sesame, sea buckthorn berries. Naturally, when added to classic recipe new products you need to focus primarily on your taste preferences. However, we should not forget that these additives should be in harmony with the taste of the cake itself.
Cakes can be served in a variety of ways:
- pour sugar icing;
- soak with fruit syrup;
- sprinkle with powdered sugar;
- mix the pieces of cake with sour cream;
- sprinkle with grated chocolate;
- add a scoop of ice cream;
- garnish with whipped cream.
Serving the same cupcake under different sauces, you can get more than a hundred various options desserts suitable for various life situations. For example, on a holiday it is appropriate to serve a cupcake, layered with custard or sour cream and garnished with cream. And on family tea party just sprinkle the cake with powdered sugar or grated chocolate.
In order for the cupcake to turn out lush and airy, it is not enough to choose good recipe. It is also important to follow the rules for baking desserts. First, unless otherwise specified, the cake mold must first be greased, then sprinkled with flour, and only after that the dough should be transferred into it. Secondly, before putting the baking sheet in the oven, you must first preheat it. Thirdly, it is necessary to moderate curiosity and not open the oven for the first 10-15 minutes of baking, since failure to follow this rule is fraught with the fact that the dessert will settle.
The cake is usually baked at an average temperature, which is approximately 230 degrees, on the middle shelf of the oven. You can check the readiness of the cake wooden skewer, she is pierced with a cupcake during baking. If the skewer remains dry or with a couple of grains of dough, then the product can be considered ready, but if the skewer is stained with dough, then baking should be continued.
It often happens that the oven has an uneven heat, that is, from below or, conversely, the temperature is higher at the top. The result of this may be that the cake begins to burn on one side, while on the other raw dough. If the cake is already browned on top, and the bottom is still damp, then you need to cover the top of the mold with foil or oiled parchment. In the case when the cake burns from below, and the top is damp, you need to put it in upper part oven or lower the temperature. You can also put a baking sheet with water on the bottom of the oven.
You need to understand that you can bake a quality cupcake only from the most best products. Particular attention should be paid to the fact that they must be fresh. Cake flour should be of the highest grade. If it was stored in the cold, it must first be left in the room so that it warms up. To achieve a good result, it is important that all ingredients are at approximately the same temperature. This will make the dough homogeneous, as a result of which the cake will be evenly elastic, without cracks and kinks.
Simple recipes for this delicious dessert, like a cupcake, will allow the hostess to quickly decorate any table.

This year, many "second halves" of my friends decided to fast, my soul mate is no exception.
Everyone who fasts pursues their own goals, but we girls support them very much in this decision and do our best to ease the 48 days of abstinence.
Current Lenten menu so varied and tasty that even I sometimes order something from it, although I don’t fast. Risotto, noodles with vegetables, mushroom soup, spring rolls, dumplings, couscous with eggplant, all kinds of cereals with pumpkin and other additives ... in general, not everything is limited to banal potatoes with bread. You can live!) But with desserts, things are different. Of course, honey, nuts and dried fruits immediately come to mind, but such products are not suitable for everyone, and they quickly get bored. Of course, a lot of lean appeared on the shelves confectionery, but almost all of them with the addition of margarine, which is not only harmful, but also has a sharp bad smell. And what could be better and tastier than homemade.
Therefore, I suggest you please your loved ones and give them a piece of sweet mood this winter spring)
Highly delicious cupcake, not inferior at all classic baking with eggs and butter! Wet, viscous and viscous inside, with a pleasant lemon sourness, slightly crispy on top. The recipe is indicated for a small form of 15 cm, but I decided to make portioned small cupcakes. I poured the rest of the batter into a heart shape. I bought it a long time ago and finally found a worthy use.
So, we need:
flour - 150 g
almonds - 50 g (grind in a blender)
salt, soda - 0.5 tsp each
sugar - 200 g
vegetable oil- 80 ml
juice and zest of half a lemon (if using concentrated juice, then 2.5 st. l.)
almond extract, if any.
water - 150 ml
almond flakes for garnish.
Everything is very easy and simple. In a bowl, mix the sifted flour, ground almonds, salt, soda and sugar.
Add juice and zest, almond extract, vegetable oil and water to this mixture. Mix everything well.
The dough will be quite liquid.
Arrange the dough in the forms (do not fill completely, it will rise during baking), sprinkle with almond petals on top.
And send to the oven preheated to 175 *, bake depending on the size of your forms. If small on average 20-25 minutes, large - hence 30-40, readiness can be checked with a toothpick.
