Welcome to my Kitchen! I'm Leigh Anne, the mother of four adult children and my husband and I are now empty nesters. I know the challenges of learning to cook for just the 2 of you, it feels like learning to cook all over again! After the kids left home, I found that I stopped making a lot of our family's favorite dishes and treats because those recipes just made too much food and I was tempted to eat too much!
On this channel, I invite you into my kitchen each week where we learn how to make small batch recipes with big taste. You can still enjoy all those family favorite recipes, just less of it!I look forward to meeting you in the kitchen each week with a new recipe and video.

Lemon poppy seed loaf cake
This is my go-to summer cake
It's not too sweet and not too dry, the poppy seeds add a nice crunchy texture
The simple glaze on top just enhances that lemony flavour which I love, you can glaze the loaf one day in advance so that it sets nicely on top
What else? Oh, well its just great with a cup of black tea :)
You can also make this in a round cake tin or even cupcakes!
I love this recipe because it uses simple ingredients and it turns out very rich and moist, not clumpy as some loaf cakes and everyone that's tasted it has loved it, so, there you go!

Ingredients:
For the cake:
2½ cups (315g) All-propose flour
1½ teaspoons Baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1½ cups (300g) Sugar
4 tablespoons (35g) Poppy seeds
4 Eggs
3/4 cup (170g) Butter, softened
1/4 cup (60g) vegetable Oil
1 1/3 cups (320ml) Buttermilk
Lemon zest from 2 lemons
2 tablespoons Lemon juice
1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
For the frosting:
1 cup (240ml) Heavy cream, cold
2 cups (450g) Cream cheese, room temperature
1½ cups (190g) Powdered sugar
1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
For decorating:
Lemon zest
poppy seeds
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350F (180C). Butter two 8-inch (20cm) round cake pans, line with parchment paper, and butter the parchment. Set aside.
2. Sift flour and baking powder into a large bowl. Add salt, puppy seeds and stir. Set aside.
3. In a large bowl beat butter and sugar, beat until creamy and pale. Add oil and beat until incorporated. Add vanilla extract, lemon juice and lemon zest, beat until incorporated. Add eggs, one at the time, beating just until combined after each addition.
4. Add 1/3 of the flour mixture to the butter mixture. Beat on low speed just until combined. Add 1/2 of the buttermilk and beat just until combined. Add another 1/3 of the flour mixture and beat just until combined. Beat the remaining buttermilk, add the remaining flour mixture and mix just until combined.
5. Divide batter evenly between prepared pans. Bake for 35-40 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean. Allow to cool 10 minutes in the pans, release from the pans and let cool completely.
6. Make the frosting: in a large bowl, beat cream cheese with powdered sugar and vanilla extract. Beat until smooth and creamy. In a separate bowl beat heavy cream to stiff peaks. Fold 1/3 of the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture, then fold the remaining whipped cream.
7. Assemble the cake: cut the top of the cakes, place one cake layer with flat side down. Spread a layer of frosting, place the second layer of cake on top of the frosting, flat side up. Spread evenly the frosting on top and sides of the cake. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
8. Decorate with poppy seeds and lemon zest.
Notes:
• When you making the cakes, if the batter is too thick, add few tablespoons of buttermilk.
• If your cakes came out flat, you don’t need cut the top.
• If you want more lemony flavor, add one more tablespoon to the batter or add 1 teaspoon lemon zest to the frosting.
