{Starbucks Lemon Loaf}

Have any of you tried the Lemon loaf at starbucks? Its amazing and what I have to get every time I go there. But paying $2.50 a slice adds up. I am so glad I found this recipe. I made it the other day and was in awe of how much it tasted like starbucks. I would even say its better, because you get to eat it while its fresh. It was so moist and yummy.

1 1/2 cups flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
3 eggs
1 cup sugar
2 Tbs butter, softened
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 tsp lemon extract
1/3 cup fresh squeezed lemon juice
1/2 cup oil
zest of one lemon

Glaze

1 cup powdered sugar
2 Tbs whole milk
1/2 tsp lemon extract


Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour a 9x5 loaf pan.
In a large bowl, combine flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt.
in another bowl combine eggs, sugar, butter, vanilla, lemon extract and lemon juice with a mixer until blended.
pour wet ingredients into the dry and blend until smooth. add oil and lemon zest and mix well.
pour into loaf pan and bake for 45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Remove from the oven and pour glaze over the top. Let cool
