    Makes 1 loaf

    2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
    1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
    3/4 teaspoon salt
    1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
    3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) butter

    Glaze
    Juice of 1 lemon
    2 tablespoons granulated sugar

    Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

    In a large bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, salt and sugar. Cut butter into the dry mixture using a pastry blender or your fingers until it resembles coarse crumbs.

    In a separate bowl, beat eggs slightly and stir in the buttermilk. Add the milk/egg mixture to the flour mixture. Add the grated lemon zest and mix only until moistened.

    Spoon mixture into greased and floured loaf pan. Bake 1 hour and 15 minutes or until golden.

    Cool 10 minutes then remove from pan and cool completely on a wire rack. Brush cake with glaze.

    Glaze: Heat and stir the lemon juice and sugar for 5 minutes.
