Maderia Cake (Pound Loaf)

Name: Maderia Cake (Pound Loaf)
Prep time: 5 min
Cook time: 40 min
Total time: 45 min
Yield: 16 servings
Ingredients: 215 g Butter; 215 g Caster sugar; 340 g Self-raising flour; 4 Eggs; 1 tbsp Milk; 1 Lemon zest

This wee recipe is a classic. I love how we all have our small variations on recipes and this is another maderia cake we have. This one might be my favourite. It's light, moist and perfect with a big wedge of butter slapped on. The lemon zest gives it a slight burst of freshness to accompany that moist sweet crumb. The classic recipes are hard to beat and this is one is up there with the best.
