Lemon Dragon Fruit Poke Cake ~ 柠檬火龙果蛋糕

Friday, May 25, 2018 2:08

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.

I came across this recipe in a Coles magazine and just couldn’t wait to give it a try. Instead of blueberry sauce I used dragon fruit to make the sauce as I was confident that the purplish colour of the dragon fruit would also stand out in this cake. And I was not wrong!

Lemon Dragon Fruit Poke Cake ~ 柠檬火龙果蛋糕
Ingredients

150 gm butter
170 gm caster sugar (reduced from 220 gm)
2 large eggs
300 gm yoghurt
225 gm self-raising flour (sifted)
40 gm almond meal
1 Tbsp lemon zest
1/4 cup lemon juice
Icing sugar to dust

Dragon fruit sauce

150 gm dragon fruit
2 Tbsp caster sugar
1.1.2 tsp cornflour + 1 Tbsp water

Method for dragon fruit sauce

Mash up the dragon fruit in a small sauce pan, add in the sugar and cook on medium heat till sugar has dissolved.
Add in cornflour mixture and cook till thicken. Cool slightly.
While still warm, pour mixture into each of the hole in the cake.

Method for cake

Line the base and grease the sides of an 8 inch springform pan. Set aside.
Beat the butter with sugar till light and creamy.
Add in eggs one @ a time, followed by yoghurt, mix well.
Add in sifted flour and almond meal to combine.
Stir in lemon zest and juice.
Spoon the mixture into the prepared pan and level the surface.
Bake in a preheated oven @ 180 deg for 45 to 50 mins. till golden brown. Test with a skewer till it comes out clean.
Let cake cool in pan for a while.
Using the end of a funnel, pierce the warm cake @ 3 cm intervals.
Spoon 2/3 of warm dragon fruit filling into each hole and gently push the filling to the bottom of the hole. Set aside to cool completely.
Dust with icing sugar before slicing to serve.

Note : Instead of a funnel you can use the end of a clean wooden spoon to poke holes in the cake.
