Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups flour
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 2 tablespoons butter, softened
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 teaspoon lemon extract
  • 1/3 cup lemon juice
  • ½ cup oil
  • Lemon Icing:
  • 1 cup powdered sugar, plus 1 tablespoon
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • ½ teaspoon lemon extract

Directions

  1. Combine flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a bowl.
  2. Mix together eggs, sugar, butter, vanilla, lemon extract, and lemon juice. Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and blend until smooth. Add oil and mix well.
  3. Pour batter into a well-greased 9 x 5 inch loaf pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes or until a toothpick stuck into the center of the cake comes out clean.
  4. Make icing by combining all the icing ingredients in a small bowl with a mixer. When loaf is cool, remove it from the pan and frost the top with icing. Let the icing set before slicing.
