Lemon Burst Loaves

This is my new "must have"!!!  This taste great!!!

Lemon Burst Loaves

1 3/4 C. flour
3/4 C. sugar
1 tsp. baking powder
3/4 tsp. baking soda
1/4 tsp. salt
1 C. sour cream
1 egg
1/3 C. butter, melted
2 T. grated lemon peel
1 T. lemon juice

Glaze:
2 T. lemon juice
2/3 C. powdered sugar

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Grease and flour your loaf pans.  (Could use mini - but I used 2 small-to-medium size pans.)

In a large bowl - whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda & salt. 

In another bowl - beat the sour cream, egg, butter, lemon peel & lemon juice until smooth.  Make a well in the dry ingredients and add the wet ingredients.  Stir just until moistened.

Fill the pans 2/3 full.  Bake at 350 degrees for 25 minutes or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean.  Cool for 5 minutes before removing the loaves from the pans onto a wire rack to cool.

For the glaze - stir the lemon juice and powdered sugar together.  Add more juice or sugar depending on the consistency you want.  I find the original to work to a nice drizzling consistency.  Pour over the tops to cover. 


This is the dry ingredients -
