LEMON TEA CAKE WITH HONEY GLAZE (LOW-FAT AND WHOLE-WHEAT)



Lemon Tea Cake With Honey Glaze (Low-Fat and Whole-Wheat) image

This luscious, lemony loaf cake goes together fast, travels well- you can pop it back in the loaf pan once it has cooled to protect it en route- and stays moist. No one will guess this moist, sweet cake with a bright citrus tang is low-fat and made entirely with whole-wheat flour. Feel free to double the recipe and freeze the second loaf for future take-along use. From the newspaper.
