Description

This saffron and lemon ring cake is a true treasure of homemade pastry! The recipe, which I often prepare with my Thermomix®, is perfect for breakfast or a delicious snack. The scent of saffron blends divinely with the freshness of lemon, creating a unique and enveloping flavor. The texture is incredibly soft and light, thanks to the addition of baking soda. Ideal to be enjoyed plain or accompanied by a lemon cream. A dessert that brings the sun to the table, perfect for any occasion!

Transfer to the mold

Grease and flour a ring cake mold. Transfer the mixture to the mold, leveling it as much as possible.

Baking in the oven

Bake the cake in a preheated ventilated oven at 170°C for about an hour, or until golden brown. Check for doneness with a toothpick.
