Ingredients

Scale

For the loaf:

  • 1/2 cup butter (softened)
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
  • Zest of 1 lemon
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup sour cream or yogurt
  • 1 cup diced rhubarb

For the glaze:

  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1–2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • Optional: 1 tablespoon rhubarb syrup or compote for color

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 175°C (350°F). Grease and line a 9×5-inch loaf pan.
  2. Cream butter and sugar: In a large bowl, cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Add eggs and lemon: Beat in the eggs one at a time, then mix in the lemon juice and lemon zest.
  4. Combine dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  5. Mix wet and dry ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.
  6. Add sour cream and rhubarb: Stir in the sour cream or yogurt until smooth, then gently fold in the diced rhubarb.
  7. Bake the loaf: Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spread evenly, and bake for 50–60 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean.
  8. Cool and glaze: Cool the loaf in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack. Make the glaze by whisking powdered sugar and lemon juice, adding rhubarb syrup if desired. Drizzle over the loaf before slicing and serving.
