Irresistible lemon loaf with creamy yogurt drizzle.
Ingredients:
  • 175g butter, softened
  • 215.00 gm caster sugar
  • 30.00 ml finely grated lemon rind
  • 3 eggs
  • 262.50 gm self-raising flour
  • 65.63 gm lemon juice
  • 165.00 ml Greek Style All Natural Yoghurt
  • 150.00 gm pure icing sugar, sifted
  • Extra 5.30 gm lemon juice
  • Lemon zest, to serve
Instructions:
  • Preheat your oven to 180°C/160°C fan-forced. Thoroughly grease a 7cm-deep, 11.5cm x 20cm loaf pan, and line it with baking paper, ensuring the paper extends 5cm above the edges on all sides.
  • In a mixing bowl, cream together butter, caster sugar, lemon rind, and vanilla until light and fluffy using an electric mixer. Then, add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Slowly incorporate the flour, followed by the lemon juice and 1/2 cup of yogurt until well combined.
  • Transfer the mixture into the pan and bake for 55 minutes to 1 hour until a skewer comes out clean. If it starts to brown too much, cover loosely with foil. Let it sit in the pan for 10 minutes, then flip it onto a wire rack lined with baking paper to cool.
  • In a medium bowl, mix icing sugar and the rest of the yoghurt. Stir in extra lemon juice until it reaches a drizzling consistency. Drizzle the icing over the loaf and sprinkle with lemon zest. Let it sit for 15 minutes before serving.
