On Thursday I prep my snack, dessert and breakfast on YouTube Live for the weekend! This time I made a bright, citrusy quick bread lemon loaf cake recipe and a lemon glaze live. This absolutely reminds me of the Starbucks lemon loaf cake. I’ve been craving #lemonrecipes non-stop recently! This recipe was adapted from a Lemon Loaf by Ina Garten (the Barefoot Contessa)! This recipe is fluffy, zesty, and the glaze tastes like bright lemonade. This #lemonloaf#lemoncake will last all week (if you don’t eat them all because they’re so good).
If you have time, come hang out and we’ll bake together on Thursdays.
