Bright, buttery, and gloriously moist, this loaf is a citrus lover's daydream. Fresh lemon juice and zest run through the tender crumb, and a quick sugar glaze poured over the warm cake soaks in for an extra hit of tangy sweetness. Sealed and stored, it only gets better, making it a perfect keeper for afternoon tea, brunch spreads, or a homemade gift.
