love and lemons

This moist lemon yogurt pound cake uses fresh lemons yields the lightest and delicious cake. Celebrate the flavor of lemon with this cake.

Lemon Yogurt Pound Cake

all-purpose flour

baking powder

salt

Greek yogurt

white granulated sugar

brown sugar

eggs

lemon zest (From about 2 small lemons)

olive oil

water

sugar

milk

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease an 8x4-inch or 9x5-inch loaf pan. (Note I used the latter and it&#39;s just a bit thinner of a pound cake. Both will work just fine.) Line the bottom with parchment paper. Grease and flour the pan.

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. In another medium-sized bowl, whisk together the yogurt, white sugar, brown sugar, eggs and lemon zest.

Slowly whisk the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients. With a rubber spatula, fold the olive oil into the batter, making sure it’s completely incorporated. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for about 40-45 minutes, or until a cake tester placed in the center of the loaf comes out clean.

To Make the Pound Cake:

To a medium saucepan, fill it with water and bring it to a simmer. When the water is rapidly simmering, add the lemon slices and allow to cook for 1 minute. Carefully remove the slices with a pair of tongs and transfer to a cutting board to drain.

To the same saucepan, dump out the old water and add 1 cup of water and 1 cup of sugar. Bring mixture to a rapid simmer; add the lemon slices in one layer (none of the lemon slices should be overlapping). Simmer the lemon slices for about 45 minutes to 1 hour. You&#39;ll notice the water/sugar mixture will reduce by a lot and the lemons will become translucent. Remove the lemons from the mixture and transfer to a cooling rack or a parchment-lined baking sheet.

To Make the Candied Lemons:

To make the glaze, sift the powdered sugar into a medium bowl. Whisk in two tablespoons of milk and mix until smooth.

Pour the glaze atop the cake and garnish with candied lemons.

To Make the Glaze:

This bread was sooo yummy and dare I say moist! Super delicious and I felt like it got better and better throughout the week. Going to try this recipe again and use your grapefruit/thyme recipe. So so good, thank you!

Made this last night and it is so good! I usually struggle with having a moist cake but I love this one. I had to put it in the oven for a few extra minutes (about 3 extra so 48 minutes total) but my oven usually has that issue. Thank you!

This recipe for this homemade limoncello liqueur requires three simple ingredients and a little bit of time. Make authentic limoncello with fresh lemon peels, sugar, everclear (or vodka). You&#039;ll end up with perfect Italian limoncello that can be put in a spritz or my favorite dessert: limoncello tiramisu.

Homemade Limoncello

ml vodka

lemons

Peel the lemons and add their skins/zest to a glass container. Pour in the vodka and close to seal. Place it in a cool and dark place for at least two weeks, ideally a month. Every few days give it a shake.

When the limoncello concentrate is ready, make the syrup. To a medium pot, set over medium heat, add in the sugar and water. Cook until the sugar has dissolved. Transfer to the fridge to chill, at least 10-15 minutes.

Strain the limoncello, being sure to press down the lemon skins to release any of the limoncello. Discard the skins. Mix together the cooled simple syrup and the limoncello concentrate.

Transfer them to glass bottles and place labels. I divided them amongst six (6-ounce) bottles.

To make the spritz, add ice to a glass. Pour some limoncello in the glass along with some sparkling water and enjoy.

it's infusing right now! it smells delicious. i used vodka btw. can't wait to try it!
