Healthy Lemon Loaf Cake Recipe

Hello Friends, Today i am going to tell you Healthy Lemon Loaf Cake Recipe. This is the best Healthy Lemon Loaf Cake Recipe. So you can check Healthy Lemon Loaf Cake Recipe Below Here. This recipe is beyond a long time in the making. I’ve been trying to make this loaf on and off for years.

I can’t even tell you how much I have obsessed, tried, trialed, and failed at it. Until now.
If you’ve ever had Starbucks’ Lemon Loaf, you know how good it is. Full of lemon flavor, moist, dense, and rich.

Anything that good I shouldn’t want to learn how to make at home, but I couldn’t leave well enough alone.

I’ve tried countless internet recipes for lemon poundcake and some were ‘fine’ but not quite perfect while others were total fails. And I definitely didn’t want to go the cake mix route.

I’ve tried using butter creamed with sugar versus oil whisked with sugar. I’ve tried various combinations of whole eggs and yolks, cake flour and all-purpose flour, and endless variations of lemon juice, lemon zest, and lemon extract. I even sent one almost-a-possibility-but-not-quite to my mom to have her trial it.

Ingredients:
3 eggs
3 tsp lemon zest (about 2 large lemons)
3 Tbsp lemon juice
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1 1/4 c plain yogurt
1 c sugar
1 1/2 c flour
1/2 tsp salt
2 tsp baking powder
1/4 c canola oil

Step by Step Making of Lemon Loaf Cake
Mix the eggs, lemon zest and juice, yogurt and vanilla extract with a whisk.
I use a wooden spoon to mix the dry ingredients into the liquid ingredients.
Add the oil last and fold it into the other ingredients.
Grease the sides of a 9x5 loaf pan. I love parchment paper so I use that to line the bottom of the pan.
Bake in a 350F oven for 50 minutes (depending on your oven). I stick a toothpick in the middle to check if it's done. If the toothpick comes out clean, it's done.
When it's done, I place the pan on a cooling rack for about 10 minutes, then remove the cake and place it on the cooling rack.
Pour lemon glaze over the top. Stir together 1 cup powdered sugar and 3 tablespoons of lemon juice. It should be fairly thin so you can drizzle it over the top and some will even soak into the cake.
I sliced mine into 20 thin slices. Of course thicker slices are the best according to the taste testers!
