Moist Lemon Cake Recipe

Good balance of sweet & tart

First time making it and couldn’t be more proud. Bake for almost an hour. I use less sugar & more lemon in the syrup. Tastes sour & not that sweet, just the way i picture it. Wish the cake is less dense but overall, 9/10!

This cake is a lemon lover's dream! I subbed for the buttermilk, overbaked it, and made the icing too runny but it was still euphoric!

It was very tasty! It was also very lemony.!!

Flavor was delicious! But bottom half of cake was a little dry. Next time I will poke holes in the cake, and possibly double the syrup to increase moisture, and flavor throughout.

Middle didn’t quite done, even though tester came out clean - turns out that slightly underdone part was the tastiest! Added lemon zest to my icing for more of a lemon flavor. Would have used only lemon juice in the icing for less of a pure powdered sugar taste.

Buttermilk sub. 1 1/2t lemon juice in 1/2 c milk

Perfect! Moist and tasty 🤤 We loved it

I made it for my coworkers on my birthday (my company is weird!) and I was fully expecting to bring home leftovers, they didn't even last until lunch break! Absolutely stunning lemon loaf and am looking forward to making it again!
