Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour your loaf pan, and line with parchment paper. In a bowl whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda & salt. In a separate bowl beat together the butter and sugar until fluffy. Next

Step 2

mix in your eggs 1 at a time. Then mix in the vanilla extract, lemon extract, lemon zest, and lemon juice. With your mixer on a low speed mix in about 1/2 of the flour mixture followed by about 1/2 of your sour cream. Turn off the mixer and scrape down the sides of the bowl. Repeat the process with the rest of the flour mixture and sour cream.

Step 3

Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 50-60 minutes. It will be done when an inserted toothpick comes out clean and the top feels firm to the touch. If after about 30-40 minutes the top is browning too much, tent a piece of aluminum foil over top and continue baking. Next cool the loaf fully before icing or your icing will melt through the cake and run off the sides periodttt.

Step 4

In a bowl whisk together your powdered sugar, lemon juice, and cream until smooth. Add in more powdered sugar or cream as needed for your desired consistency.


Step 5

Remove your cooled loaf from the pan and drizzle or pour over top. And Enjoy!!!!!!
