100 gr sugar |
4 eggs |
1 lemon, the peel grated, only |
1 ts vanilla extract |
260 gr flour ( half whole wheat / half all purpose ) |
2 ts baking powder |
40 ml milk ( about 3 tb ) or water |
for dusting |
powdered sugar |
Directions:
1. cream sugar and butter in mixer, about 5 min. Add eggs one by one and incorporate. Add lemon peel and vanilla, mix. Sift baking powder into flour, add to the sugar / fat mixture by the spoonful. Add enough milk to have a not too sticky dough, it should have the consistency of pancake batter.
