Serves: 8-10
Ingredients
  • ½ cup Unsalted Butter, room temperature
  • 1 cup Granulated Sugar
  • 2 Eggs, slightly beaten
  • 1¼ cup All-purpose Flour
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
  • ½ teaspoon Salt
  • ½ cup Milk
  • ½ cup Finely Chopped Nuts
  • 1 Lemon Rind, Grated
Glaze
  • ¼ cup Granulated Sugar
  • 1 Lemon, juiced
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 5" x 9" loaf pan.
  2. Cream the butter and 1 cup sugar. Mix in eggs. Sift flour, baking powder and salt together. Alternately add the flour mixture and the milk to the butter mixture, stirring as you go. Mix in nuts and grated lemon rind.
  3. Bake for 1 hour. Just before the bread is ready to come out of the oven, combine the ¼ cup sugar with the juice of one lemon. Pour over the top of the loaf when it comes from the oven. (Poke a few holes in the bread top with a toothpick so the lemon-sugar mixture will drip into the bread.)
  4. Serve warm or at room temperature.
Notes
Can use butter or shortening.
