This easy lemon loaf cake with lemon glaze is bright with citrus flavour and has a moist and soft crumb. The cake, which is made with yoghurt and butter gets brushed with lemon syrup as well as coated in a delicious lemon glaze icing. This is a fool-proof recipe that everyone will love.

A classic lemon loaf cake should be in any baker’s repertoire. As with my best carrot cake recipe and Victorian sponge cake with strawberry jam I did a fair bit of research and testing. Most classic lemon drizzle loaf cakes are a variation of pound cake, but I found the texture too dense. I wanted something lighter.
