Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C) and grease a 9x5 inch (23x13cm) loaf pan.
-
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
-
In a separate large bowl, beat the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
-
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
-
Beat in the lemon zest and lemon juice.
-
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with the sour cream, and mix until just combined.
-
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 55-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
-
Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then remove it from the pan and let it cool completely on a wire rack.
-
While the cake is cooling, prepare the glaze by whisking together the powdered sugar, lemon juice, and heavy cream until smooth.
-
Drizzle the glaze over the cooled cake and let it set for 20 minutes before serving.
