Ingredients
- 200 grams all-purpose flour
- 10 grams baking powder
- 1 pinch salt
- 3 large eggs
- 100 grams granulated sugar
- 100 milliliters skim milk
- 50 milliliters vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and grease a 22 cm (9 inch) round cake pan with a little vegetable oil or non-stick spray.
Step 2
In a large bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
Step 3
In another bowl, beat the eggs and sugar using an electric mixer on high speed until the mixture becomes pale and fluffy. This should take about 3-4 minutes.
Step 4
Slowly add the skim milk, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and lemon zest to the egg mixture, and mix on low speed until combined.
Step 5
Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients using a spatula, being careful not to over-mix. Stop as soon as the batter is smooth.
Step 6
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
Step 8
Let the cake cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then turn it out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 9
Once cooled, slice the bizcocho into wedges and serve plain or with a light dusting of powdered sugar for an extra touch.
