Ingredients

Scale

Loaf:

  • 1/2 cup Butter, softened
  • 1 cup Sugar
  • 1 1/2 cups All-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon Baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon Baking soda
  • 2 large Eggs
  • 1/4 cup Lemon juice
  • Zest of 1 Lemon
  • 1 cup Rhubarb, chopped (optional for rhubarb flavor)

Glaze:

  • 1 cup Powdered sugar
  • 2–3 tablespoons Lemon juice

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a loaf pan.
  2. Cream Butter and Sugar: Cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in Eggs: Beat in the eggs one at a time, ensuring they are fully incorporated.
  4. Add Lemon Juice and Zest: Add the lemon juice and lemon zest to the mixture, stirring until well combined.
  5. Combine Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk the flour, baking powder, and baking soda.
  6. Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix!
  7. Fold in Rhubarb: Fold in the chopped rhubarb, ensuring it’s evenly distributed.
  8. Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  9. Cool and Glaze: Once baked, let the loaf cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack. In a small bowl, whisk the powdered sugar with lemon juice until smooth. Drizzle over the cooled loaf.

Notes

  • For added texture, you can sprinkle some chopped nuts on top of the glaze.
