Steps

  1. Line a pound cake mold with parchment paper.
  2. Sift 80g Cake Flour and 3g Baking Powder into a large bowl.
  3. Add 30g Almond Flour to the sifted bowl and mix well with a whisk.
  4. Zest the yellow part of 2 lemons, being careful not to include any white pith.
  5. Mix the lemon zest with 100g Granulated Sugar to lock in the aroma. This step ensures the lemon scent remains strong.
  6. Cut the lemon in half and strain the juice.
  7. Melt 110g Unsalted Butter in the microwave.
  8. Preheat oven to 170°C (340°F).
  9. In a bowl, whisk together the beaten 2 Whole Eggs (100g) and the 100g Granulated Sugar mixed with lemon zest.
  10. Add the egg mixture to the bowl with the sifted dry ingredients and mix until just combined.
  11. Add the melted butter and mix gently from the center outwards until the mixture is uniform.
  12. Add the strained Lemon Juice from 1 Lemon (30g) and mix everything together with a rubber spatula.
  13. Pour the batter into the mold, tap it lightly to release air bubbles, and bake in the preheated oven at 170°C (340°F) for 35-40 minutes.
  14. Combine 20g Granulated Sugar and 20g Water in a saucepan and heat.
  15. Once the sugar dissolves and the mixture comes to a boil, remove from heat.
  16. Cut the remaining lemon in half and strain the juice.
  17. Mix the syrup from the saucepan with the strained Lemon Juice from 1 Lemon (30g).
  18. Insert a skewer into the baked pound cake; if it comes out clean, remove the cake from the mold.
  19. While the cake is still hot, brush the syrup all over the surface. Applying the syrup while hot allows it to penetrate the cake well.
  20. Let the cake cool slightly, then wrap it in plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator.
