Yield Makes 2 loaves

3 cups all-purpose flour (spooned and leveled), plus more for pan
3/4 cup low-fat buttermilk
Zest of 2 lemons, finely grated

Lemon Glaze for Glazed Lemon Pound Cake

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees, with rack in lowest position. Butter and flour two 4 1/2-by-8-inch (6-cup) loaf pans.
  • In a small bowl (or liquid measuring cup), combine buttermilk with lemon zest and juice. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, salt, baking powder, and baking soda.
  • With an electric mixer, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  • With mixer on low, add flour mixture in three parts alternately with the buttermilk mixture in two, beginning and ending with flour; beat just until smooth (do not overmix).
  • Divide batter evenly between pans; smooth tops. Bake until a toothpick inserted in centers comes out clean, 50 to 60 minutes (tent with foil if browning too quickly). Cool 15 minutes in pan. Turn out cakes onto a rack; cool completely before glazing.
  • Set rack with cakes over a baking sheet lined with waxed paper. Pour glaze over cakes, letting it run down the sides; let dry, about 30 minutes.

Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 1/2 (190g) cups all-purpose flour
1/4 tsp table salt
1/4 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp baking powder
1/2 cup (114g) unsalted butter, room temperature
1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
3 large eggs, room temperature
2 Tbsp lemon zest (from about 2 lemons)
1 Tbsp lemon juice
2 tsp vanilla extract
1/3 cup sour cream, room temperature
1 cup (125g) powdered sugar
1 Tbsp lemon juice
1 Tbsp milk or cream

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325F and grease an 8×5″ or 9X5″ loaf pan.
  • In a medium bowl, toss together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  • Using an electric handheld or stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter and granulated sugar on medium speed for about 3 minutes until light and fluffy. Scrape down the sides and up the bottom of the bowl as needed.
  • Add in the eggs one at a time, mixing well in between. Again, scrape as needed. Then mix in the lemon juice, lemon zest, sour cream, and vanilla extract. The mixture will look curdled, but that's ok, it will come together when you add in the dry ingredients.
  • Stir in the dry ingredients in two equal parts until just combined. Spoon the batter into the prepared loaf pan.
  • Bake for 55-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool completely before glazing.
  • To prepare the glaze: whisk all the ingredients together until smooth and pour over the cake. Slice and serve.
