Lemon Loaf
Since it's Spring I was in the mood for something lemony. This "Lemon Loaf" is perfect for your lemon craving. The lemon extract gives it the flavor that most lemon recipes lack. I found the recipe on
Pinterest.
List of Ingredients
1 1/2 c all-purpose flour
1/2 t baking soda
1/2 t baking powder
1/2 t salt
3 eggs
1 c granulated sugar
2 T butter, softened
1 t vanilla extract
1 t lemon extract
1/3 c lemon juice
1/2 c vegetable oil
Lemon Icing
1 c plus 1 T powdered sugar
2 T whole milk
1/2 t lemon extract
Recipe
Preheat oven to 350°.
Combine flour, baking soda, baking powder & salt in a large bowl.
Use
an electric mixer to blend together eggs, sugar, butter, vanilla, lemon
extract & lemon juice in a medium bowl. Pour wet ingredient into
dry ingredients & blend until smooth.
Add oil & mix
well. Pour ingredients into a well-greased 9x5-inch loaf pan. Bake for
45 minutes or until a toothpick stuck into the center of the cake comes
out clean. Make the lemon icing by combining ingredients in a small bowl
with electric mixer on low speed.
When the lemon loaf is cool,
remove it from the pan & frost the top with the lemon icing. When
the icing has set up, slice the loaf into eight 1-inch-thick slices.
