Baking with lemon

Are you also crazy about the tart flavor that lemon adds to your sweet bakes? Then make one of our favorite sweet recipes with lemon, from soufflé to meringue to lemon poppy cake.

Lemon soufflé

This soufflé is much easier to make than it looks, but of course, you’ll keep that to yourself. We’d happily eat it for dessert every day.

Creamy lemon squares

These creamy lemon squares are the perfect treat. Not only are they incredibly delicious, they’re also easy to take with you. Ideal when you have to bring treats to work.

Lemon tart with a chamomile crust 

The herbal chamomile and fresh lemon in this tart make the ultimate combination. Imagine yourself in a summer setting and you’ll never settle for anything else again.

Lemon meringue pie

Don’t feel like spending hours on end in the kitchen? Make the crust one day and the filling the next. We admit it: perfecting meringue is quite a task and not easy. But practice makes perfect. Really.

Ottolenghi’s lemon poppy seed cake

As far as we’re concerned, this is the best recipe for lemon poppy cake you’ll ever come across—you have to try it. It’s light, airy, sweet (but not too sweet) and covered with lemon glaze.

Layered lemon cake

This cake consists of two layers: a layer of cake and a layer of frosting. The cake is light and spongy, while the frosting is creamy, sweet and buttery.

Lemon curd shortbread

The name says it all, doesn’t it? The thought of lemon curd alone gets us completely excited. Spread it on a shortbread cookie and we’re sold.
