    I just LOVE all things Lemon and this Thermomix Lemon and Poppy Seed Cake is no exception!  It's based on my Lemon Butter Cake recipe, with the addition of poppy seeds - how easy is that?!

    Thermomix Lemon and Poppy Seed Cake

    It's an easy cake to put together and best of all it's freezer friendly (even when iced) so you can always have a slice of cake handy whenever you feel like it - winning!

    Thermomix Lemon and Poppy Seed Cake

    It's a great cake to enjoy while still warm from the oven or iced with a simple vanilla icing.  However if you want to make this Thermomix Lemon and Poppy Seed Cake something extra special, try icing it with a Cream Cheese Icing (recipe below) - yum!

      For the baking novice like me, please add to the method that this is 150 for a fan forced oven. I have just checked my cake after 45 min at 150 in a conventional and it is still well uncooked 🙃

        Our apologies! We've updated the recipe to reflect that it's fan-forced.

      Hi, for step 7 it doesn’t give thermomix steps? Like speeds. I’m assuming you put the butterlfy in then what speed? Then when you mix the icing sugar do you leave in the butterfly and what speed? Sorry to ask.

        I would do it without the butterfly for 15 seconds, Speed 5. Scrape down repeat. If you wanted to make it fluffier, you could add the butterfly after it's already well mixed and whip it for 30 seconds, Speed 3.

      My wish is for the thermomix to negate the need for an electric mixer. Can the thermomix still make the icing ok? Or must you use an electric mixer?

        Have you implemented the butterfly and created the icing? There is no need for a mixer.
