Instructions
Sieve the flower into a bowl and stir in baking soda, baking powder and salt
Put sugar, margarine, elderflower syrup and milk into a food processor or mixer and mix until foamy
Now add lemon juice and zest
Add the dry ingredients and mix well (but not for too long)
Stir in apple cider vinegar
Grease and flour a loaf pan (approx. 25-30 cm/10-12“)
Bake the cake for 30 – 40 minutes at 180°C (356°F) and check with a stick if well done
Mix sugar and fresh lemon juice for the icing or alternatively use elderflower syrup and sugar – this will turn out very sweet though
