Ingredients

Lemon Loaf

  • 250 g Cake Flour or AP flour (2 cups)
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • 100 g granulated sugar (½ cup)
  • 100 g light brown sugar (½ cup)
  • 4 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • zest of 1 lemon
  • 60 mL vegetable oil (¼ cup)
  • 240 mL milk semi-skimmed, whole, or plant based (1 cup)

Strawberry Glaze

  • 4-5 medium-sized fresh strawberries + extra for garnishing
  • 125 g icing sugar or powdered sugar (1 cup)

Instructions

Lemon Loaf

  • Preheat the oven to 175°C (350F). Line a 9x5" loaf pan with parchment paper.
  • Sift and mix flour, salt, and baking powder into a medium-sized mixing bowl and set aside.
  • Place granulated and brown sugar in a large mixing bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Add vegetable oil and mix for 1-2 minutes. (You can also use a handheld mixer).
  • Add lemon juice, lemon zest, and vanilla extract and mix well to incorporate.
  • Add dry ingredients, alternating with milk, in two additions, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  • Transfer batter into loaf pan and bake for 45 to 55 minutes or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Transfer cake to a cooling rack to finish cooling. Make sure the loaf has completely cooled before glazing.

Strawberry Glazing

  • Wash and hull strawberries. Place in a food processor or blender and blend until smooth.
  • Place icing sugar in a medium sized bowl. Stir in 2-3 tablespoons of strawberry puree, until the desired glazing consistency is reached. For a thicker glaze add more powdered sugar. For a thinner glaze, add more strawberry puree.
  • Pour glaze over cooled loaf cake and chill until set. Top with extra sliced strawberries or lemon zest as desired, slice and serve.
