If you enjoy baking you'll fall head over heels for this lemon pound cake recipe! The refreshing lemon zest and sweet glaze are truly decadent.
|
1 | Preheat oven to 325 and position oven rack in the lower third of the oven. Spray a bread pan with cooking spray and flour or use Pam Baking Spray. |
2 | Sift together flour and baking soda; set aside. In a bowl, beat butter and cream cheese on medium until creamy. Gradually add 1 ½ cups sugar; beat until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. |
3 | Increase speed to medium-high; gradually add egg substitute, beating well. Beat in vanilla and 2 tbsp lemon juice. |
4 | Reduce speed to low; add flour mixture in 3 additions until mixed well. Fold in lemon zest. |
5 | Spoon batter into prepared pan. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 70-75 minutes. Let cool on a wire rack for about 15 minutes. |
6 | In a small saucepan over medium heat, whisk 3 tbsp lemon juice and ¼ cup sugar until sugar is dissolved. |
7 | Turn cake out onto waxed paper or serving plate and brush with glaze. Let cool completely. Cut into 12 slices. |
8 | ENJOY! |
