Ingredients
- 200 g Golden Syrup
- 100 g Butter
- 100 g Caster Sugar
- 1 Egg
- 150 ml Milk
- 200 g Self Raising Flour
- 1 Lemon (zest only)
- 3 tbsp Golden Syrup
Method
- Preheat the oven to 160Β°c (140 Β°fan/ 325Β°F/ Gas 3) and line a 2lb loaf tin with baking parchment.
- Place the golden syrup, butter and caster sugar in a pan and melt it on a low-medium heat. Remove from the heat and leave to cool for a few minutes.
- In a small jug, whisk together the egg and milk and then beat it into the cooled syrup mixture.
- Mix in the flour and lemon zest. You may want to use a whisk to make sure the batter is as smooth as possible (don't worry if a few small lumps remain).
- Pour the batter into the tin and bake for 50 minutes to 1 hour (until a skewer comes out clean). Immediately brush the top of the loaf cake with the extra golden syrup glaze and leave to cool completely.
