1/2 tsp salt
2 large eggs
2/3 cup evaporated milk

This easy Old Fashioned Lemon Bread recipe is such a classic! It's
fast, super lemony, and tastes like it's straight out of your
grandma's kitchen.
Preheat oven and prepare pan: Preheat oven to 350F. Grease and flour
8 x 4" baking pan.
Make batter: Combine flour, baking powder and salt in large bowl.
Beat eggs, evaporated milk, sugar, oil and lemon zest together in
medium bowl. Add the flour mixture into the egg mixture. Stir until
just combined. Pour into prepared pan.
Bake for 55 to 60 minutes or until wooden skewer inserted in center
comes out clean. Let it cool for 5 minutes in the loaf pan then
remove the loaf from the pan and transfer it to a cooling rack.
Make lemon syrup: While the bread is baking, combine 1/3 cup
granulated sugar and 1/4 cup lemon juice (1 lemon) in small,
heavy-duty saucepan. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly,
for about 5 minutes or until sugar is dissolved and a light syrup is formed.
Top bread with lemon syrup: While the bread is still warm, poke
numerous holes using a wooden skewer, piercing all the way to the
bottom. Slowly drizzle the hot lemon syrup over the bread (syrup will
soak into the bread). Finish cooling the bread on wire rack.
NOTES: Leftovers: Store your leftover lemon bread on the counter at
room temperature tightly sealed. I usually wrap it in plastic wrap or
cut it in slices and keep it in a covered cake plate. It will last
anywhere from 3 to 4 days at room temperature.
Freezing: This lemon bread is great for freezing. Wrap it up tightly
with aluminum foil or plastic freezer wrap and store it in the
freezer for 4 to 6 months. I prefer to wrap slices individually so
they can thaw easier. Let it thaw on the counter at room temperature
1 to 2 hours before you plan on eating it.
