Tips for Perfect Lemon Bread:
- Room Temperature Eggs: Ensure your eggs are at room temperature for the best emulsion and a smooth batter.
- Don't Overmix: Once you add the dry ingredients, blend only until just combined to keep the bread tender.
- Vary Your Glaze: Feel free to adjust the amount of lemon juice in your glaze for more or less tartness. For an extra touch, you could even add a tiny pinch of lemon zest to the glaze.
- Add-ins: For an extra twist, consider folding in a handful of poppy seeds (about 1-2 tablespoons) or chopped walnuts after blending the wet ingredients.
