Time 1h35m

Yield 1 loaf

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup granulated sugar
3 1/2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, plus
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
4 medium eggs
1/2 cup creme fraiche
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
3 lemons, zest of, grated
6 tablespoons butter, melted and slightly cooled
1/2 cup powdered sugar, sifted
1 lemon, juice of

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 9-inch loaf pan.
  • To prepare the cake: In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with paddle attachment, combine the sugar, flour, and baking powder on the lowest speed. Add the eggs and continue mixing until the mixture forms a smooth paste. Mix in the crème fraiche, lemon juice, lemon zest, and melted butter. Pour the batter into the buttered loaf pan and transfer to the center rack of the oven.
  • Bake for 60 to 65 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Let the cake cool in the pan for 5 to 10 minutes, then turn it out onto a rack to cool.
  • To prepare the glaze: In a bowl, mix the powdered sugar and lemon juice until the sugar dissolves. Brush the top of the cake with the glaze while the cake is still warm.

Tips:

  • Use fresh lemons for the best flavor. If you don't have fresh lemons, you can use bottled lemon juice, but the flavor will be less intense.
  • Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will help to incorporate air into the batter, resulting in a lighter and more tender cake.
  • Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. This will help to prevent the batter from curdling.
  • Sift the flour and baking powder together before adding them to the batter. This will help to ensure that the cake is light and airy.
  • Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in a tough, dense cake.
  • Bake the cake in a preheated oven. This will help to ensure that the cake bakes evenly.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.
