Steps:
- Make the cake: Preheat the oven to 350˚ F. Lightly butter a 9-inch square baking dish; dust with flour and tap out the excess. Whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda, poppy seeds and salt in a medium bowl. Beat the butter, granulated sugar and lemon zest in a large bowl with a mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition, then beat in the vanilla. Reduce the mixer speed to low and beat in the flour mixture in two batches, alternating with the sour cream and scraping down the bowl as needed. Spread the batter in the baking dish.
- Make the topping: Mix the flour, brown sugar, oats, poppy seeds, nutmeg and salt in a bowl; work in the butter with your fingers until the mixture looks like coarse meal.
- Sprinkle the topping over the batter. Bake, rotating the baking dish halfway through, until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 50 minutes to 1 hour. Transfer to a rack and let cool completely. Dust with confectioners' sugar just before serving.

LEMON POPPY SEED CAKE
This recipe was given to one of my Uncles 25 years ago from a co-worker. It has been a much requested recipe in our family ever since. One of my favorites. *The secret to the lemony flavor is the thin glaze which sinks into the cake and then hardens and gives it a really nice texture. I love the bottom where the glaze is thickest!

FIVE MINUTE LEMON-POPPY SEED CAKE
I read a recipe a while back about a chocolate cake that was cooked in 3 minutes in the microwave. I didn't really believe it, but I tried it out and then proceeded to alter it to suit my own tastes because I thought it was too heavy and the texture was a bit wonky - if decent for an instant chocolate fix at 12:00 in the morning. Still, the unpleasant texture just became more pronounced as I experimented with vanilla variations. At last, here is my 5-minute lemon-poppy seed cake that rises beautifully and is light and airy - unlike the chocolate cake.
