EASY CRANBERRY AND WHITE CHOCOLATE POUND CAKE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 170c, 325F. Grease and line your baking tin. See here for how to line
• Get all your ingredients ready, i.e zest and juice the lemon, sieve the flour, and add the salt and baking powder to the flour etc. Pop the cranberries in a bowl or bag, and add the 1 Tablespoon of flour. Coat the cranberries with the flour then remove the excess flour. (This stops the fruit sinking during the bake).
• Start with making the cake batter by creaming the butter and sugar until a pale light colour. To achieve a softer texture cake, it is really important to cream the butter and sugar until almost white and a little fluffy. See the photo below.
• Slowly add the beaten eggs and milk to the mixer, on a low speed setting, a bit at a time. If the mixture starts to curdle or split, add a spoonful of your sieved flour, keep on adding the eggs and milk and a bit of flour if necessary, until all the eggs are added.
• Once combined, add the lemon juice, and zest, and the rest of the flour. Right at the end, fold in the cranberries and white chocolate.
• Transfer the cake mixture to the greased and lined loaf tin. Place in the oven for 1 hr to 1 hr and 5 minutes. Test if done after 55 minutes by placing a skewer in the centre of the cake and make sure it comes out clean. Every oven is different so cook times will vary a little.
• Have a cup of tea and wait!
