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.
- Beat in the eggs, one at a time, ensuring each is well incorporated. Add the vanilla extract, lemon zest, and lemon juice. Mix until combined.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with buttermilk. Begin and end with the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it evenly.
- Bake for 50-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- While the loaf is baking, prepare the glaze by whisking together the powdered sugar and fresh lemon juice until smooth.
- Once the loaf is done, allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack.
- Drizzle the lemon glaze over the cooled loaf, allowing it to set for a few minutes. Garnish with lemon zest if desired.
