1 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1/2 cup sour cream or Greek yogurt
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
Zest of 1 lemon
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
For the lemon glaze:
1 cup powdered sugar
2-3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×5-inch loaf pan.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, using a hand mixer or stand mixer.
Beat in the eggs, one at a time, until well combined. Add the sour cream or Greek yogurt, lemon juice, lemon zest, and vanilla extract, and mix until smooth.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 45-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
