Lemon Tea Bread Recipe

The method of making lemon tea bread is not as difficult as everyone thinks. Prepare the necessary things first, then start following the steps, and remember to control the heat well.

1. The butter is fully softened at room temperature, and you can press it lightly with your hand to make a deep pit.

2. Wash the fresh lemon, grind the lemon peel into powder with a grinder, add 10 grams of fine white sugar and mix well.

3. Sift together the flour, baking powder and salt and set aside.

4. Add granulated sugar to the softened butter, stir with an electric whisk at low speed to blend the sugar and oil, then switch to high speed and stir until the butter is fluffy and smooth.

5. Add an egg at room temperature and beat evenly, then add another one and beat well to allow the egg and butter paste to fully blend; pour in room temperature milk little by little, stirring while pouring.

6. Add the flour in three batches, stirring each time before adding the next batch. You can use an electric whisk to stir at low speed until well mixed. Do not over-stir to cause gluten formation. You can also use a rubber spatula to gently stir evenly.

7. Add the pickled lemon peel and mix well.

8. Pour the mixed batter into the mold. Ordinary molds should be coated with oil for anti-stick treatment.

9. Preheat the oven to 180℃, bake on the middle and lower layer for about 35 minutes; after taking it out of the oven, pour it out of the mold and place it on the baking rack to cool.
