Turned out just like in the photo, perhaps even taller! I did add about 3 Tbsp lemon juice to the cake batter as well as the rind, as I love cakes to be 'super lemony'.

The cake is smallish which suits now there's only two of us, as sometimes I get tired of what I've baked before it's eaten! I notice cake in picture and my own cake split while cooking - usually an indication oven temperature too hot - I'd lower the temp and cook longer next time I make it., approved=true, user_name=Deb, hs_createdate=1702249867652, rating_new__1_5_=5, id=11175656301}]}
