Ingredients
Bread Ingredients
- 2 large eggs room temp
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 2 TB lemon zest
- 1/4 cup melted butter
- 1/3 cup milk
- 1/4 cup oil
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 3/4 cup flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/3 cup PLAIN yogurt
Icing Ingredients
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 2 TB lemon juice
- 2 TB milk
- pinch salt
Instructions
- To Prep: Preheat oven to 350°F and line a loaf pan with parchment paper.
To Make the Bread
- Whisk together the lemon zest and sugar, until the sugar becomes fragrant with the lemon oil.
- Add the eggs one at a time, whisking until incorporated into the sugar. Add the oil, melted butter, and vanilla and mix well for about 2 minutes. Mix in the yogurt and milk.
- Sift together the salt, baking soda, baking powder, and flour together. Slowly add flour mixture to bowl of wet ingredients, to prevent clumps. Do not over-mix! You only need about 25 stirs of the whisk.
- Pour batter into the prepared pan and bake for 42-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the middle of the cake comes out clean. Remove the loaf from pan onto a wire rack and cool completely before icing.
To Make The Icing
- Whisk together milk, lemon juice, powdered sugar, and salt. It should be thick, but still pour-able.
- Make sure the loaf is cool to the touch, then pour slowly so the glaze is mostly on the top, but it can drip down the sides a little bit. Allow icing to set before slicing loaf.
