Tasty Lemon Cake

Preheat the oven to 180 °C.

Line a 1,5 litre loaf tin and grease with a few drops of lemon-flavoured avocado oil.

Place oil, eggs and sugar in a large mixing bowl and beat with an electric beater for about 3-5 minutes or until light, fluffy and pale yellow. For the best results, make sure that the sugar has completely dissolved.

Sieve flour in a separate bowl and mix with the almonds. Gently fold into the egg mixture, but take care not to over mix.

Spoon the batter into the loaf tin and bake for about 40-45 minutes or until a skewer comes out clean. Allow to stand for 1-2 minutes in the pan. Turn onto a cooling rack and allow to cool.

Dust with icing sugar and serve as tea time treat.
