In fact, whenever I want to infuse baked goods with lemon flavour, I always opt to use lemon zest in the batter. I think it works just as well as extracts or oils, and lemons are readily available year-round at most grocery stores.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Instead of just tossing the zest in with the other ingredients, I highly recommend you rub it into the granulated sugar in the recipe for several minutes to make <a href=\"https:\/\/bakeschool.com\/how-to-make-lemon-sugar\/\">lemon sugar<\/a>. The sugar crystals damage the surface of the zest, liberating the flavourful oils contained within, and infusing the sugar. This leads to a little more flavour. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1800\" data-pin-description=\"Learn how to make an iced lemon cake with this easy recipe.
