Lemon Loaf
LEMON LOAF I always been a fan of lemon flavours. This easy lemon loaf is perfectly tangy and bursting with fresh lemon flavour. This better is made with freshly grated lemon zest and fresh lemon juice and then top with a crunchy sugar glaze that crystallizes on top, giving a constrasting texture to the soft crumbs underneath. I actually prefer this loaf after it has set for a day. It gets more flavorful. Anybody fond of lemon will love this cake. TIPS TO MAKE LEMON LOAF - It is really just a basic cake mix. Butter, sugar, eggs, milk - with lemon added in. Because it's just a basic cake mix, you need to make sure the quantities are correct. - Don't leave the lemon zest, that is what gives it the wonderful lemony flavor. Make sure you only grate the yellow part as the white part is extremely bitter. - I rub the lemon zest into the sugar before adding the butter. This releases the citrus oil and gives the sugar extra flavour. - You can optinally decorate it -
