Chop the walnuts coarsely and set aside.

In a mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.

Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.

Stir in the vanilla extract and lemon zest.

In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt.

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.

Fold in the chopped walnuts gently into the batter.

Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top.

Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.

Remove from the oven and let cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Once cooled, dust the top with powdered sugar before serving.
