I'm cooking this todayRecipe's preparation
- You will need 1 x 20cm spring form cake tin.
For the cake
Preheat oven to 190°C. Grease the sides and line the base of your springform cake tin with baking paper.
Place raw sugar into the mixing bowl and mill 5 seconds sp 9.
Add all wet ingredients and lemon zest and mix together 5 seconds sp 5.
Add the plain flour and make a shallow well in the centre of the flour.
Add the baking powder, bicarb soda and salt into the well.
NOTE: avoid adding the baking powder and bicarb soda directly to the liquid to prevent them from reacting with the lemon juice.
Mix the ingredients together for 30 seconds sp 5. If necessary, scrap down the sides of the bowl and mix a further 10 seconds sp 5.
Pour the cake batter into the prepared cake tin and bake for 35-45 minutes or until the cake is a golden brown and a skewer comes out clean.
Transfer the baked cake to a wire rack and leave the cake to cool completely in its tin.
The cake will sink slightly and will come away from the sides of the tin which is perfectly normal for this cake.
Clean and dry mixing bowl.

Method
Tip
I used coconut milk made using the recipe from the 'Vegetarian Kitchen' cookbook.
You can used tinned coconut milk so long as it is of a good quality.
Do NOT use coconut cream as the cake becomes slightly bitter in taste.
Frozen blueberries can be used in place of fresh. Add an extra 2 minutes to the cooking time.
Assemble the cake just before serving.

Recipe is created forTM 5
If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.Please note that the TM5 mixing bowl has a larger capacity than the TM31 (capacity of 2.2 liters instead of 2.0 liters for TM 31). Recipes for the Thermomix TM5 may not be cooked with a Thermomix TM31 for safety reasons without adjusting the quantities. Risk of scalding by spraying of hot liquids: Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity and observe the filling level markings of the mixing bowl!
