Lemon Capri Torte

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 400F.

2. 2

   Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan.

3. 3

   I prefer to use a springform pan.

4. 4

   Cream the butter and sugar, add the egg yolks in one go, then add the lemon zest and lemon juice.

5. 5

   In a separate bowl, whisk the egg whites until they form soft peaks and add to the mixture.

6. 6

   Last, fold in the ground almonds and flour.

7. 7

   Pour the mixture into the cake pan and bake in the oven for 10 minutes, then turn the oven down to 300F and cook for another 40 minutes.

8. 8

   Cool and invert the cake onto a serving plate.

9. 9

   You can get creative with this: I was disgusting and iced it with a mixture of creme fraiche and lemon curd!
