Lemon-Nut Bread is perfect for you if you love the soothing taste of lemons. By the way, lemon permeates this bread, warm or cold. Incidentally, speaking of cold, a friend in Michigan claims this bread cures the common cold! In addition, it stores well. However, you may just have to keep it hidden!
Seriously, my pastor’s wife back in Cheboygan, had the sniffles and I gave them a loaf of this bread. Consequently, Zoanne said it cured her cold! As a result, so many memories are tied to these recipes. By the way, I was the organist at that church and I sure do miss all my friends! Meanwhile, I hope you make some great memories with this, serving it to your friends. Incidentally, I used this bread as a gift fairly often.
Ingredients for Lemony, Lemon-Nut Bread:
Sugar or Splenda, 1 cup or a mix
Butter or margarine, salted, 1/2cup
Lemon extract, 1 Tablespoon
Eggs, 2 large
Flour, sifted, 1 & 1/2 cup
Baking powder, 1 teaspoon
Salt, 1 teaspoon
Milk, 1/2 cup
Lemon rind, 1 grated
Pecans or almonds, chopped, 1/2 cup
GLAZE:
Fresh lemon juice, 1/2 cup
Sugar, 1/2 cup
Instructions for Lemony, Lemon-Nut Bread:
First, preheat oven to 350 degrees. Then, spray a 9 x 5 inch loaf pan with non-stick spray. Next, beat sugar, melted butter and lemon extract for one minute. Beat in the eggs, one at a time. Add dry ingredients (sifted together) alternately with milk. Gently, fold in nuts and lemon rind. Now, bake for 60 minutes or until bread feels firm in the center. Consequently, remove from the oven and allow it to cool a few minutes. Meanwhile, prepare your glaze and drizzle it over bread while it’s still warm. Finally, cool bread completely before removing from pan. Enjoy. (Really good with coffee or tea!)
P.S. I am constantly seeing articles about the benefits of lemons as part of a healthy diet. Lemon juice is recommended as often as Apple Cider Vinegar. I found a good website on some of the main health benefits. Therefore, I’m putting the link here for you. Lemons
P.P.S. While you are getting your things together for this, check your kitchen utensils. If they are rusty, bent or entirely shot, check out my page on Housekeepers Butler. It might be a good time to update some of those items. Moreover, it’s fun to see what she has available. Perhaps you could use some new textiles for when you have company. This is a great place to find both utensils and textiles. Consequently, you won’t have to hide them!
