How to Make Baked Lemon Lime Cake Pudding Use Lime For St Pat S Day

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8-inch square baking dish.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 ½ cups granulated sugar, and ½ teaspoon salt.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together the zest and juice of 1 large lemon and 1 large lime, 4 large egg yolks, and 1 cup whole milk. Whisk this mixture into the dry ingredients until just combined.
  4. In a clean, dry bowl, beat 4 large egg whites with an electric mixer until stiff, glossy peaks form. Gently fold the egg whites into the lemon-lime batter.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish.
  6. Place the baking dish into a larger roasting pan. Pour enough hot water into the roasting pan to come halfway up the sides of the baking dish.
  7. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean and the cake is lightly browned.
  8. Let the cake cool in the water bath for 15 minutes before removing it to a wire rack to cool completely. Dust with powdered sugar before serving (optional).

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
