Cake for coffee from Lazy Baking: Really Easy Sweet and Savoury Bakes (page 77) by Jessica Elliott Dennison

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    Can substitute orange zest for grapefruit zest.

    First time making this and Iove it! So simple, perfect for breakfast. I've used 200 sugar, instead of 250. 1 tsp grand marnier instead of the orange zest and a mix of butter, salted butter, and evo oil - used what I had on hand. Wouldn't change a thing.

    YUM. Everything on hand in the pantry. A beautiful simple cake.

    When I first opened this book in the shop it opened at this recipe..... obviously had to be the first I tried! Used (Waitrose) strong wholemeal bread flour as it needed using up. Was super duper easy to make using a stand mixer. Needed about 6/7 minutes of extra baking which I put down to the wholemeal flour. Can confirm it's excellent with a cup of coffee especially as the wholemeal flour gives it a bit more heft. It didn't taste particularly sweet but would like to somehow reduce the 1/4 kg of sugar in the recipe next time. Will definitely make again.
