To begin making Lemon Buttermilk Cake Recipe, preheat oven to 180C and grease a loaf tin with butter and dust with flour.
Sift the corn and plain flour into a mixing bowl along with baking powder and baking soda.
In another mixing bowl beat sugar with butter until light and fluffy. Stir in lemon zest and set aside.
Add a half teaspoon of lemon juice into buttermilk and mix well.
Now add the flour mixture into the sugar butter mixture alternating with buttermilk and mix well until combined.
Transfer the batter into the prepared pan and bake in preheated oven for about 40 to 50 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean.
Cool the cake on a wire rack with a baking tray underneath it.
To make the syrup put all ingredients in a saucepan and cook until sugar is dissolved.

To make the icing add the lemon juice gradually into the icing sugar until desired consistency.
Pour the icing over the cake and let the extra drizzle down into the tray.
