- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup 1 stick unsalted butter softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon lemon extract zest of 1 large lemon
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1/3 cup sour cream
- Lemon Icing
- 2 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon cream or milk
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350
Spray a loaf pan with non stick baking spray
In a medium bowl whisk together the dry ingredients and set aside.
In the bowl of a stand mixer, cream the butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy (about 4-5 mins)
Add in the eggs one at a time, beating after each until incorporated and scraping down the bowl after adding.
Add in all flavorings (vanilla, lemon juice, zest and extract) Add in half of the dry ingredients and mix until combined. Add in sour cream and mix well.
Add in the remaining dry ingredients.
Pour the batter into the loaf pan and bake for 45-55 mins until skewer comes out clean.
Cool completely before adding icing.
For the glaze
In a medium bowl whisk together all of the ingredients until a thick icing forms. If the icing is too thick add a tsp of cream or milk to thin it out.
If icing becomes too thin add more powdered sugar a bit more lemon juice.
Notes
When adjusting the flavor profiles for the glaze be sure to taste it so that it’s not too sweet not too tart.
If you don’t have sour cream you can also use buttermilk.
