Sometimes, the relationship I have with my sister is just freaky. For instance, on more than occasion, we have started singing the exact same song in the exact place at the exact same time. I kid you not. We are just that in tune with each other.
The other day we were talking about what we wanted to bake, and I suggested Starbucks Lemon Loaf. Apparently, she had been craving that bread just a couple of days before, and she was super excited to find out I had the recipe for it.
While it did not turn out as lemony as the Starbucks version, this Top Secret Recipes version was really moist and delicious. Just look at the picture if you don't believe me!
Top Secret Recipes Version of Starbucks Lemon Loaf
Ingredients:
Lemon Loaf-
1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 eggs
1 cup sugar
2 tablespoons butter, softened
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon lemon extract
1/3 cup lemon juice
1/2 cup vegetable oil
Lemon Icing-
1 cup plus 1 tablespoon powdered sugar
2 tablespoons whole milk
1/2 teaspoon lemon extract
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. To make the loaf, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a large bowl.
3. Use an electric mixer to blend together eggs, sugar, butter, extracts and lemon juice in a medium bowl.
4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and blend until smooth. Add the oil and mix well.
5. Pour the ingredients into a well-greased 8-1/2 by 4-1/2 inch loaf pan. Bake for 45 minutes or until a toothpick stuck into the center of the loaf comes out clean.
6. Make the lemon icing by combining the ingredients in a small bowl with an electric mixer on low speed. When the loaf has cooled, remove it from the pan and frost the top with the lemon icing. When the icing has set up, slice the loaf into 8 1-inch-thick slices.
