Preheat your oven to 350°F. Massage lemon zest into the sugar. Cream together with the butter. Add eggs one at a time and mix until smooth. In a separate bowl, whisk your flour, baking powder, and salt. Whisk your lemon juice, milk, extract, and sour cream in a separate jug. Add 1/2 of the dry mixture to the butter mixture and mix to combine. Add the milk mixture and mix to combine. Finish on the rest of the dry mixture. Fold in the poppyseeds. Grease a round (8” for thinner, 6“ for thicker layer) pan with oil or nonstick cooking spray and line with a parchment round. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-28 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out with a few moist crumbs. Now, make the meringue. *If you are not comfortable eating pasteurized egg whites raw, OPT for a Swiss meringue instead of a French meringue.* Whip egg whites in the bowl of a stand mixer until foamy. Slowly add in the sugar, 1 tbsp at a time, until all of the sugar is added. Whip on high until stiff peaks form. Top the cooled cake with a pile of meringue and torch until golden. Slice and enjoy! . #bakersofinstagram #cakesofinstagram #meringue #lemonpoppyseed
