Directions:
- Heat oven to 180 C or 360 F or Gas mark 4.
- Sift the polenta, flour, baking powder & salt into a bowl.
- Tip the yoghurt, oil, lemon zest & juice into a jug and stir to combine.
- Beat the eggs and egg whites with half the sugar until thick and creamy.
- Fold in the dry ingredients.
- Pour the batter into a greased & lined 2 pint loaf tin.
- Bake for 40-45 minutes or until set & a skewer comes out clean.
- Put the remaining sugar into a pan with 7 fl oz of water and the lavender heads.
- Bring to the boil and then simmer for 10 minutes. Cool completely & then strain into a clean jug.
- Whilst the cake is still warm, prick the top and drizzle over half the syrup, saving the rest to serve with the cake later.
- TO SERVE:.
- Serve with extra syrup, raspberries, creme fraiche & a sprig of lavender.
- The normal portions I use are 2 thin slices on each plate, overlapped for effect and then a drizzle of syrup around the slices with raspberries scattered over the top and a rounded tablespoon of creme fraiche to one side.
