Not sure what I did wrong, but this turned out kinda dry when eaten by itself. When we ate it with butter and/or jam it helped. I like the idea of a loaf made from lemons so I will try again.

Nice, really nice! As it turned out, I was out of fresh lemons and all out of my frozen zest.....so I used fresh oranges for both the zest and the juice. Very enjoyable! Can't wait to make with lemons!

Ahhhh! Nothing better than warm bread from the oven, and even better, it has a wonderful lemon flavor. Believe me, this one wasnt cool when I cut it! It was easy to do late in the afternoon, and was ready before 5:00 pm. I love the flavor and texture. A fine recipe, Sue, thanks for sharing a "keeper"!
