Yum!🍋🍋🍋
Not me reading that as Lemon Party Seed Cake.. 🍋🎉🤮
Where are the measurements for the flour and sugar?
So what you’re telling me is I have to pay to subscribe to get your recipes. Well that’s nice to know cause I won’t be watching this anymore. You could stick your PayPal and whatever you got you know where ridiculous the New York Times must be hurting bad garbage journalism anyways.

If you’re not gonna say the measurements in the video, put it in description, please

I don’t know if they added a free link to the description later or if people didn’t find the link, but here are the measurements from the free recipe link the channel shared:
Butter, for greasing pan
1 ¾ cup all-purpose flour, more for pan
Zest of 2 lemons
1 cup sugar
½ cup buttermilk
3 tablespoons plus 4 teaspoons lemon juice
3 large eggs
1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
¼ teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon fine sea salt
⅔ cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon poppy seeds
½ cup confectioners’ sugar
Great sugar+zest tip! The videos give me so much context for technique
Poppy seeds are expensive but so worth it for recipes like this!❤
The ends are the best part
