Eggless Lemon Tea Cake is a delicious Tea cake hinting a mild lemon flavour and with just the right sweetness. Made with whole wheat flour, the finished cake doesn't look or taste that it is made with wheat flour.
I was almost tempted to use all purpose flour, however wanted to see how the wheat flour will taste and so went ahead and used only wheat flour.
Almost half of the loaf got over when it came out of the oven. This surely makes a great tea time snack!
