    Recipe is created for
    TM 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!

    Fantastic - I reduced sugar and made a simple icing of sugar + lemon juice. First 'bundt' recipe that actualy worked for me. Thank you!

    Lovely moist and dense cake.

    Used light Ricotta and 60 grams of butter plus enough milk after juice to top it up to 100 grams.

    Also only put in 220 grams of sugar.

    Will make again, thank you 🙂

    I made this today and it was beautful.
    I cut the sugar by 120g and squeezed in a little more fresh lemon and it was still a very tasty cake.
    I had to leave it on the oven for an extra 20 minutes.
    Certainly will try this one again.

    I changed the flour to gluten free and it worked well, big cake I forgot the juice as it wasn't in the method, everyone loved it especially my Coeliac daughter. Didn't know whether I needed to keep it in the fridge once cooked seeing it had ricotta in it?

    Delicious cake!
    I didnt have a bundt tin so used a 10 inch spring form tin. Next time I will invest in a bundt tin. I couldnt see where is said to add the juice only the rind so I added the juice of the lime and lemon which totaled approx 40ml and topped up with 60ml milk to = 100ml liquid.

    The cake is delicious when you use SR flour, the ingrediens say "SR sugar", an error I think? Makes a big difference to the cake though!

    I LOVE this cake. Have made it several times now both as cupcakes and a bundt cake. Making the large cake, I like to pierce the cake on the top with a skewer when it comes out of the oven and pour a simple citrus syrup over the top (wait 10 mins before turning it out onto the wire rack). MMMM delicious as a dessert served with whipped cream. This recipe is just so versatile to tweek using yoghurt instead of ricotta, grapefruit/orange instead of lemon/lime etc ... whatever combination it is always a success.
