Baked Lemon - Lime Cake Pudding is a variation of a classic British dessert called Lemon Pudding. It is similar to a cake or custard, but has a softer, more pudding-like texture. This recipe uses a combination of lemon and lime for a more complex flavor, and green sugar crystals for a festive touch on St. Patrick's Day. The cake can be served warm or cold, and is delicious on its own or with a dollop of whipped cream. It is a perfect ending to a St. Patrick's Day feast, or any other occasion that calls for a simple and satisfying dessert.

Instructions

1.	Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2.	In a large bowl, mix together the flour, sugar, salt, and lemon or lime zest.
3.	Add the lemon or lime juice, egg yolks, and milk, and mix until well combined.
4.	In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form.
5.	Gently fold the egg whites into the batter.
6.	Pour the batter into a greased 9x13 inch baking dish.
7.	Bake for 40 to 45 minutes, or until golden brown and set in the center.
8.	Serve warm with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream, if desired.
