LEMON!! Tart! and sweet if made into a lovely loaf. Like this one from Colorado Farmers’ Market Cookbook – my book of choice for October’s Cook Book Countdown. This Very Lemon Loaf is just that VERY lemon! 3 Tbl of lemon zest mixed with 1 1/2 tsp lemon oil and soaked in a lemon glaze. JUST RIGHT! I usually cannot get enough lemon flavor into a cake, but this recipe from Maggie McCullough’s Bakery and Cafe was perfect!
I made a simple lemon glaze for the top because you can NEVER have too much lemon. I love that you can see the little pieces of lemon zest in the cake. Moist. Lemony.
The recipe is on page 167.
I’m linking this post with Cookbook Countdown hosted by Kitchen Flavours and Emily’s Cooking (Makan2).

I love lemon bread! A slice of lemon bread this good is definitely not enough! With a cup of warm Earl Grey tea is the best!
