Steps

1
Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Prepare a baking pan (grease and flour or line with parchment).
2
In a medium bowl, whisk together the AP flour, baking powder, and salt.
3
In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, sugar, whole milk, neutral oil, and vanilla bean paste. You may also add the zest of the lemon here if desired for the cake batter.
4
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
5
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan.
6
Bake for 55-65 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
7
Let the cake cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
8
For the icing: In a small bowl, combine the powdered sugar, lemon juice, 2 Tbsp whole milk, and the zest of 1 lemon. Whisk until smooth, adding more milk a teaspoon at a time if a thinner consistency is desired.
9
Once the cake is completely cooled, drizzle or spread the icing evenly over the top.
