Beth's Lemon Bread

•1 cup sugar
•1/2 cup butter or margarine
•2 eggs
•1 TBL lemon juice (use the bottled kind; it’s easier)
•1 1/2 cups flour
•1teaspoon baking powder
•1/2 teaspoon salt
•1/2 cup milk
Mix all dry ingredients together and set aside. Cream butter and sugar together; add eggs and beat until light and fluffy. Add the dry ingredients alternately with the lemon juice and the milk. Bake in a loaf pan sprayed with pan spray at 350 degrees for 45 – 50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. It should be pale golden brown and the top should be cracked a bit.

Glaze:

•1 cup powdered sugar
•Enough lemon juice (about 2 TBL’s or so) to make it pourable.
Loosen sides of hot lemon bread. Poke holes into the bread with a fork and pour on your glaze.

Happy eating.
