Categories     Dessert

Time 1h10m

Yield Cuts into 8 slices

Number Of Ingredients 10

140g butter, softened, plus extra for the tin
2 lemons softened, plus extra for greasing
3 eggs
250g golden caster sugar
200g ground almond
175g polenta or fine cornmeal
1 tsp gluten-free baking powder
mascarpone, to serve
140g golden caster sugar
1 lemon, juiced

Steps:

  • Butter a 23cm cake tin and heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Put the lemons in a saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring to the boil, drain, pour over more cold water, then simmer for 1 hr until the lemons are really soft, topping up with more water if you need to. Drain the lemons well. When cool, halve them, remove the pips and blitz in a food processor to a purée.
  • Add all the other cake ingredients and carry on blitzing until you have a loose batter. Scrape the batter into the cake tin and bake for 40-50 mins until golden and starting to shrink away from the sides.
  • While the cake bakes, make the drizzle by mixing the sugar with the lemon juice. When the cake is ready, remove from the oven and leave to cool a little. While still warm, pour over the drizzle and leave to cool completely. Serve with mascarpone.

WHITE WINE & OLIVE OIL POLENTA CAKE WITH LAVENDER SYRUP



White Wine & Olive Oil Polenta Cake With Lavender Syrup image

Because we live in a vineyard, our guests from out of town get a kick out of any recipe we prepare that has wine in it. This is an adaptation of an Italian Cake recipe that I inherited and it is lovely. Very moist and healty at the same time!

Time 30m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/2 cup olive oil
2 large eggs
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup white wine (I used left over Chardonnay)
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup polenta
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 lemon, zest of, finely grated
1/2 teaspoon rosemary (fresh and finely chopped)
1/2 cup water
1/3 cup sugar
2 tablespoons lavender flowers (crushed-may use lemon zest instead if lavender not available)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Prepare an 8" cake pan for baking by cutting a parchment circle for the bottom. Next spray the inside of the pan with cooking spray, add the circle and spray the top of the circle so that all parts that the cake will touch are covered with a thin layer of cooking spray.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the oil, eggs, 1 cup sugar, and wine until smooth.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, polenta, baking powder, salt, lemon zest and rosemary until well combined. Pour in the liquid mixture and stir until just combined.
  • Pour the batter into the cake pan. Bake until cake begins to pull away from sides of pan and a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, 35 to 40 minutes.
  • While the cake is cooking, make the lavender syrup. Heat the sugar and the water together in a small saucepan. Let this come to a low boil with a minimum of stirring and cook for about 5 minutes until it thickens slightly. Set aside.
  • Cool in pan 20 minutes. Run a knife around edge of cake; place a cake plate on the top of the cake pan. Holding both securely, turn both over at once so that the cake is now lying on the cake plate on your counter. Remove the pan and the parchment paper.
  • Take a toothpick and poke little holes all over the top of your cake. Slowly pour the syrup all over the top so that it seeps into the cake. Serve and enjoy!

LEMON POLENTA CAKE WITH LAVENDER SYRUP AND RASPBERRIES



Lemon Polenta Cake With Lavender Syrup and Raspberries image

This lush Italian dessert cake makes a bold and unusual statement with the addition of fresh lavender syrup. It is an elegant Dinner Party Dessert Cake which marries fruit & herbs together in a fresh & imaginative way! One of my "Stand By and Never Fails to Please" dinner party desserts!! Great served with just the simple addition of some creme fraiche. If you are using dried lavender flowers, please remember that they are more pungent than fresh flowers, so use sparingly! NOTE: I would be very wary of using too much lavender - it is quite a pervasive flavour, the essence of this recipe is that delicate flavours marry well with each other & are not too overpowering!
