this is the best recipe I've tried for a lemon loaf. My husband can't stop eating it!!! I added 2 tbsp. of poppy seeds (did it more for the look not so much for taste). One thing, next time I will double the glaze, as we liked how chewy the loaf got on the top because of the glaze! Wonderful recipe and will be a staple in our household! Thank you!

I made this for breakfast this morning and it was so good. I loved the lemon flavor and it was a good basic loaf. Thank you for sharing this with us, I can't wait to make this again. Yummy.

Your favorite lemon loaf is now our favorite as well! This loaf has a heavenly flavor and texture. Very lemony and buttery (used butter rather than shortening), and quick and easy to put together with pantry staples. Everybody loved it for breakfast, DH and I also thoroughly enjoyed it with our afternoon tea. Thanks for the delicious recipe.

This was a very nice lemon loaf. It did seem to me to be more of a tea cake than a quick bread. The glaze imparts an intense lemon flavor which I enjoyed. It did not rise as much as I expected it to, but it remained a nice treat.
