Number Of Ingredients 9

3 large eggs
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup vegetable oil
3 tablespoons milk
4 tablespoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon grated lemon zest
1 1/2 cups flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°.

  • Put the eggs in a mixing bowl and beat with an electric mixer until they are pale yellow and thickened. (This takes a few minutes.).

  • In a small bowl, stir milk, lemon juice, and lemon zest together and add to batter.
  • Sift flour, baking powder, and salt together and blend into batter until thoroughly mixed.
  • Pour batter into the prepared pan, which should be about two-thirds full.
  • Place in oven and bake about 35 to 40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted near the center of the loaf comes out clean.
  • Place the pan on a cooling rack for 5 minutes.
  • Loosen loaf and turn out onto the rack.
  • Turn loaf upright and let cool completely.
  • Sprinkle with powdered sugar or you can make a lemon glaze and drizzle over.
