How to prepare Lemon Pound Cake

To prepare the lemon plumcake, first melt the butter and let it cool slightly. Meanwhile, sift together in a large bowl: the flour 1, the cornstarch 2, and the baking powder 3.

In another bowl, break the eggs, add the sugar 4, and mix for a few minutes with a hand whisk 5. Scent with grated lemon zest 6.

Then pour in the juice 7 and the mix of dry ingredients 8. Also, add the poppy seeds 9.

Finally, add the melted butter 10. Now that all ingredients are incorporated 11, pour the mixture into a 10x4 inch flared mold, buttered and floured 12.

Dip a scraper in a bit of melted butter 13 and create a long line that divides the batter 14. Bake the plumcake in a preheated static oven at 375°F for about 45 minutes; perform the toothpick test to be sure. When it's ready, let your lemon plumcake cool before enjoying it 15.
