How to prepare the homemade cake?

The first thing we are going to do is preheat the oven to 200º, aside, we are going to leave the mold ready: spread it quite well with butter and sprinkle it on top with a little flour.

We will start this recipe by mixing the milk, oil, eggs, zest, and sugar with the mixer until it is a homogeneous mixture. Next, we are going to sift the flour together with the yeast so that the dough is fine, does not form lumps, and is well distributed.

Gradually add the already sifted flour along with the previously beaten. Beat until a homogeneous mixture is left. Pour into the mold and if you want, you can add a few pieces of chopped almonds, walnuts, raisins, etc. We put it in the oven for 30 minutes or until we click with a wooden toothpick and it comes out clean.

After that time, we remove it from the oven and let it rest for about 10 minutes at room temperature, then decorate it with icing sugar, cream, melted chocolate, nuts, etc.
