Ingredients
Method
Prepare the Batter
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a loaf pan.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- In another bowl, cream the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
- Stir in the buttermilk, lemon juice, and lemon zest until combined.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Bake the Cake
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
For an extra lemony flavor, drizzle a lemon glaze over the cooled cake.
