Step 1

Add your dry ingredients into a large bowl and mix well.

Step 2

Add in the wet ingredients on top of the dry ingredients and mix until combined, but be careful not to overmix.

Step 3

Grease or line a loaf pan then pour the batter into the pan.

Step 4

Bake at 350f for 50 minutes - 1 hour. The outside should be golden brown and you should be able to stick a toothpick inside and have it come out clean.

Step 5

Take the lemon loaf out of the oven and let it sit for at least one hour. The loaf will continue to cook in the pan and if you slice into it too early it will be very gummy.

Step 6

Optional: Top the loaf with a lemon glaze. Whisk together ½ cup powdered sugar with ½ tbsp of lemon juice and some lemon zest. If using a glaze make sure the loaf has cooled completely to room temperature otherwise it will melt all over the loaf.
