  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice

  • 1 cup diced strawberries

For the Glaze:

  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2–3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×5-inch loaf pan.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
  3. Cream Butter and Sugar: In a separate bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Add Eggs and Flavorings: Beat in the eggs one at a time, then mix in the lemon juice, lemon zest, sour cream, and vanilla extract.
  5. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients until just combined. Fold in the diced strawberries.
  6. Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Make Glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, lemon juice, and lemon zest until smooth.
  8. Glaze the Cake: Once the cake has cooled slightly, drizzle the glaze over the top. Allow the glaze to set before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • This cake is best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
  • Feel free to add more lemon zest for a stronger lemon flavor.
  • You can substitute the strawberries with raspberries or blueberries for a different twist.
