In a mixing bowl, combine the egg, lemon zest, and sugar. Beat until light and fluffy.

Gradually fold in the flour until a smooth, pliable dough forms.

2. Shape the Cake

Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).

Roll the dough into your desired shape: a loaf, round cake, or small individual portions.

If using a filling, spread it evenly over the dough and fold or roll as needed.

3. Bake

Place the cake on a parchment-lined baking tray or greased pan.

Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.

4. Cool and Finish

Allow the cake to cool completely on a wire rack.

Dust with powdered sugar or drizzle with a lemon glaze for an extra burst of flavor.
