The Lemon Loaf Cake was a cinch to put together. No electric mixer required----just whisk ingredients by hand. Awesome!
The texture of the cake is pound cake-like, and slices beautifully. I sent the sliced loaf to work with my hubby today, but not before sharing a slice with my girls last night. Delicious! Perhaps a bit drier than I expected, but not horribly so. I couldn't help thinking this would be even better with a lemon glaze, or served with lemon curd.
Regardless, this cake would be perfect with brunch, or as a simple dessert.
Enjoy!
I love the top picture. =) I liked the cake both with and without glaze, but I have to admit, I generally think you can't ever have too much lemon.
ReplyDeleteYes! LOVE lemon desserts! :)
DeleteYour loaf bake up so nice, beautiful pics! I served mine with some lemon curd and it was delicious.
ReplyDeleteI love lemon curd, and that would have been the perfect thing to make to go alongside! :)
DeleteThe first picture with the fanned out cake slices has a really nice look to it! And yes, to both lemon glaze & lemon curd!
ReplyDeleteThanks Cher!
DeleteYour loaf turned out beautifully! I also think it'd be delicious with a glaze or curd.
ReplyDeleteThanks Heather!
DeleteLovely! I had to up the lemon on mine because I really like a lemon punch.
ReplyDeleteThanks Jules! I do plan to make this again because it was so easy, but I'll definitely up the lemon. :)
