Grease an 18cm\/7in round cake tin, line the base with greaseproof paper and grease the paper.<\/li>\n<li>Cream the butter and sugar together in a bowl until pale and fluffy. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, beating the mixture well between each one and adding a tablespoon of flour with the last egg to prevent the mixture curdling.<\/li>\n<li>Sift the flour and gently fold in, with enough milk to give a mixture that falls slowly from the spoon. Fold in the lemon zest.<\/li>\n<li>Spoon the mixture into the prepared tin and lightly level the top. Bake on the middle shelf of the oven for 30-40 minutes, or until golden-brown on top and a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean.<\/li>\n<li>Remove from the oven and set aside to cool in the tin for 10 minutes and then turn it out on to a wire rack and leave to cool completely.<\/li>\n<li>To serve, decorate the cake with the candied peel.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Let us know how your cake turns out and\u00a0<a title=\"OPA Facebook page\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/pages\/Oesophageal-Patients-Association\/104567763004209\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">post a photo on our Facebook page<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Follow our simple steps for making a classic Madeira cake&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":16666,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-16665","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorised"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v22.9 -
