🍳 Preparation Steps
  1. 1

    Wash the lemons, finely zest them and juice them to obtain 60g of juice.

    Preheat the oven to 170°C (fan) and prepare a loaf pan.

  3. 3

    Mix the flour, baking powder and salt in a bowl.

  6. 6

  7. 7

    Reserve 30g of chocolate chips and gently fold the rest into the batter. Add rosemary if desired.

  8. 8

    Pour the batter into the pan, smooth the top and sprinkle the reserved chips on top.

  9. 9

    Bake for 45 to 55 minutes. Test doneness with a knife.

  10. 10

    Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then unmold and wait 20 minutes before slicing.

Tips & Tricks
  • Melt the butter in the microwave in 20-second bursts to avoid burning it.
  • Weigh the lemon juice directly in a bowl for time-saving and accuracy.
  • Replace yogurt with 125g of milk for a lighter texture, or with cottage cheese for more softness.
  • If the top browns too quickly, cover it with aluminum foil halfway through baking to prevent the chips from burning.
