Lime & Lemon Yoghurt Cake

Give me a lemony flavour and a rustic homemade look cake and you'll see that I will be a very happy girl with just about that! This fluffy and delicious cake is perfect for afternoon tea or even to serve as a dessert after a light meal and the easy-to-follow recipe is worth saving. With the muesli topping the resulting cake was a resounding success, but I'm sure any other choice will be equally good because the amazing taste of the dough is definetly a winner by itself!

Ingredients: 

• 6 eggs 
• 1/2 cup sunflower oil 
• 1 natural yoghurt 
• 1 1/2 cup sugar 
• 1 cup of flour 
• 1/2 mug of cornstarch (I used Maizena) 
• 1 teaspoon of baking powder 
• Zest of 1 lemon and 1 lime 
• Juice of 1/2 lemon and 1/2 lime

Beat the eggs with the sugar until fluffy. Add the yogurt. Add and incorporate the sunflower oil in the dough. Add the lemon  and lime zest and mix into the batter. Squeeze the lime juice and add to the batter. Finally add the flour and baking powder and mix well. Pour the dough into a mold buttered and dusted  with flour and mix the muesli with a bit of   powdered sugar and spread on top of the dough. Take to the pre-heated oven at 180 º C for 35 minutes.
