Equipment

  • 9-inch round cake pan

Ingredients
  

  • 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon dried culinary lavender
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup powdered sugar For the glaze
  • 1–2 tablespoons lemon juice For adjusting glaze consistency
  • Additional lavender sprigs for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan.
  • In a large bowl, combine the flour, granulated sugar, lavender, baking powder, and salt.
  • In another bowl, beat the softened butter until creamy. Gradually add the sugar mixture, mixing until light and fluffy.
  • Mix in the eggs, milk, lemon zest, lemon juice, and vanilla extract until well combined.
  • Gradually blend the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until smooth and no lumps remain.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
  • Place the cake in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Once done, remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 20 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar and lemon juice until smooth. Adjust consistency by adding more lemon juice if needed.
  • Once the cake is completely cooled, drizzle the glaze over the top. Optionally, garnish with lavender sprigs for an elegant touch.
