Lemon drizzle loaf cake is a favourite bake for many people, and turning it into a traybake cake offers smaller servings, ideal for sharing.<\/p>\n

The description of the recipe reads: \u201cMary Berry\u2019s lemon drizzle traybake has been a hit since the 1960s, and this is the recipe she is most asked for when stopped in the street.\u201d<\/p>\n

According to the recipe, it takes less than 30 minutes to prepare, around 30 minutes to cook and will make 16 servings when cut into small squares.<\/p>\n

With more than 180 five-star ratings, I was eager to try this recipe out to see just how delicious the cake was.<\/p>\n

To start with, I greased a traybake tin with butter before lining it with parchment paper and turning my oven to 180C.<\/p>\n

I started by measuring out all of the ingredients and placing them into my stand mixer, beating until fully combined.<\/p>\n
