[SUB]French Weekend Cake: Lemon Flavor, Lighter & More Delicate than Pound Cake!【Xuxu Cooking】

🎉Welcome to Xuxu Cooking! Let’s make Gâteau Weekend/Weekend Cake together! 🎉

Recipe inspired by the Tokyo pastry shop “IL PLEUT SUR LA SEIN”.
This cake has a light, delicate and moist texture, somewhere between pound cake and chiffon cake. With a slightly lower butter ratio, it’s lighter and less greasy compared to a traditional pound cake.

unsalted butter 40g
whole egg 108g
granulated sugar 135g
lemon zest 1
sour cream 60g
cake flour 30g
bread flour 30g
baking powder 3g
rum 14g
apricot jam Q.S

Tips: Except for butter and rum, keep all other ingredients refrigerated.
