Fluffy and Light Water Cake Recipe: A Deliciously Moist Dessert

Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C) and greasing a cake pan. In a bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, and vanilla extract. Grate the zest from the lemon and set it aside. In another bowl, combine the water, vegetable oil, granulated sugar, and a pinch of salt. Squeeze the lemon and add the juice to the wet ingredients.

Next, gradually add the dry ingredients to the bowl of wet ingredients, stirring until everything is well combined. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top with a spatula.

Step 2: Bake and Enjoy
Bake the cake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Once cooled, slice the cake and serve it on its own or with a dusting of powdered sugar. This light and zesty water cake is a simple yet delicious dessert that is sure to impress. Enjoy!
