This is perfect to serve with coffee or as a dessert, buttery and very moist, it has an interesting grainy texture from the ground almonds and polenta.
1 Lightly grease a 26cm-round springform cake tin and line base with baking paper. Preheat oven to 180°C.
2 Cream spread and sugar together. Beat in eggs. Fold in polenta, flour and almonds with lemon and lime zest and one-quarter of the lemon juice.
3 Spoon into prepared tin and cook for 25 minutes or until firm to touch. Cool for 5 minutes before removing from pan.
4 Prick sponge surface all over with a fork. Sprinkle with two-thirds of the remaining lemon juice and leave for 5 minutes for juice to be absorbed. Cut to serve.
Serve with a dusting of icing sugar and a spoonful of low-fat plain yoghurt.
Make it gluten free: Use a gluten-free flour such as rice flour and gluten-free baking powder.
Save the remaining lemon juice for a dressing or to flavour chilled water.

I made this cake this morning as my new little lime tree has produced several limes. The cake is delicious. I love, it, my husband loves it and I’m going to share a few slices with my neighbour too. I think semolina could be used if polenta wasn’t on hand. Marianne (Nelson).
