Tips:
- Use fresh lemons. Fresh lemon juice and zest provide the best flavor. If you don't have fresh lemons, you can use bottled lemon juice, but the flavor will not be as good.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the loaf tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Use a toothpick to test for doneness. Insert a toothpick into the center of the loaf. If it comes out clean, the loaf is done.
- Let the loaf cool completely before glazing. This will help the glaze set properly.
- Store the loaf in an airtight container at room temperature. The loaf will stay fresh for up to 3 days.
