Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups Gluten Free All Purpose Flour
  • 3 Eggs room temperature
  • cup Milk I used unsweetened Dairy Free Milk
  • 2 sticks Salted Butter Swap for plant-based if needed
  • 1 cup Granulated Sugar
  • 1 Lemon juiced
  • 2 tablespoon Lemon Zest
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
Lemon Glaze
  • 1 cup Confectioner's Sugar
  • 2 tablespoon Lemon Juice

Equipment

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 325° and grease your loaf pan.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, at high speed, cream the butter with sugar until fluffy.
  3. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each.
  4. Slowly mix in the flour and milk. Continue mixing until a smoothe batter forms.
  5. Pour batter into the loaf pan, then bake 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. Let cool at least 15 minutes before removing from the pan and frosting.
  6. While the loaf is baking, make the glaze. Add 2 tablespoon lemon juice to 1 cup confectioner's sugar and stir until you have a frosting consistency. If needed, add more lemon juice to thin, add more sugar to thicken.
