Method

  1. Step 1:

    Preheat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas mark 4. Grease and line the base of a 24cm square cake tin with parchment.

  2. Step 2:

    Beat the spread and Truvia for Baking Caster in a large bowl using an electric hand whisk until pale and creamy.

  3. Step 3:

    Whisk the eggs gradually into the mixture, adding a spoonful of flour and beating well between each addition. Add the remaining flour, baking powder, ground almonds and lemon zest and fold into the cake mixture using a large metal spoon or spatula.

  4. Step 4:

    Spoon the mixture into the prepared cake tin and bake for 30-35 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the middle of the cake comes out clean.

  5. Step 5:

    Put the cake tin on a wire rack to cool for a couple of minutes. Meanwhile mix the lemon juice, 50g of Truvia for Baking Caster and honey to make a runny syrup and then drizzle over the top of the cake. Cool in the tin for a further 10 minutes and then remove from the tin and cool completely before serving.
