Easy delicious Lemon loaf Cake

Preheat and Prepare:

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Grease and flour a loaf pan.

Mix Dry Ingredients:

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.

Cream Butter and Sugar:

In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, cream the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.

Add Wet Ingredients:

Beat in the eggs, one at a time, followed by the lemon zest, lemon juice, and vanilla extract.

Combine Mixtures:

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk. Begin and end with the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined.

Bake:

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.

Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Prepare Lemon Icing:

In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar and enough lemon juice to achieve a thick, pourable consistency.

Cool and Drizzle:

Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Drizzle the lemon icing over the cooled cake, allowing it to cascade down the sides.

Garnish with additional lemon zest if desired.
