Time 1h

Yield 1 loaf, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

16 tablespoons unsalted butter (2 sticks)
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, softened for the pan
1 1/2 cups cake flour (6 ounces)
1 tablespoon cake flour, for the pan
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/4 cups sugar (8 3/4 ounces)
2 tablespoons lemon zest
2 teaspoons lemons (1 lemon)
4 large eggs, room temperature
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
1/2 cup sugar (3 1/2 ounces)
1/4 cup lemon juice (2 lemons)

Steps:

  • Adjust an oven rack to the middle position and heat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease an 8 1/2 by 4 1/2 inch loaf pan with 1 tablespoon of the softened butter; dust with 1 tablespoon of the flour, tapping our the excess. In a medium bowl, whisk together the remaining 1 1/2 cups flour, the baking powder and the salt; set aside.
  • Melt the remaining 16 tablespoons butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Whisk the melted butter thoroughly to reincorporate any separated milk solids.
  • In a food processor, pulse the sugar and zest until combined, about 5 pulses. Add the lemon juice, eggs and vanilla; process until combined, about 5 seconds. With the machine running, add the melted butter through the feed tube in a steady stream [this should take about 20 seconds]. Transfer the mixture to a large bowl. Sift the flour mixture over the egg mixture in three additions, whisking gently after each addition until just combined.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake 15 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 325 degrees and continue to bake until deep golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 35 minutes, rotating the pan halfway through the baking time. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then turn onto a wire rack. Pike the top and sides of the cake throughout with a toothpick. Cool to room temperature, at least 1 hour. [The cooled cake can be wrapped tightly in plastic wrap and stored at room temperature for 5 days.].
  • For the glaze: While the cake is cooling, bring the sugar and lemon juice to a boil in a small saucepan, stirring occasionally to dissolve the sugar. Reduce the heat to low and simmer until thickened slightly, about 2 minutes. Brush the top and sides of the cake with the glaze and cool to room temperature.

The cake was a bit dry. I think I should have used more butter.

I had some trouble getting the cake to rise properly. I think I may have overmixed the batter.
