   Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   1                  T  lemon zest -- from 1 lemon
   1                cup  granulated sugar
   2             sticks  unsalted butter -- at room temp
   3              large  eggs -- at room temp
   1 3/4           cups  all-purpose flour -- or cake flour
   1 1/2            tsp  baking powder
      1/2           tsp  salt
      1/2           cup  buttermilk
                         glaze:
   1 1/2           cups  powdered sugar
   1                  T  lemon juice -- to thin, add more as necessary

Prep: 20 minutes
Cook: 55 minutes
Total: 1:15

Preheat oven to 350F Lightly butter a 9x5" loaf pan and line it with 
parchment paper with long ends so you can lift the bread out later 
for glazing and slicing.

Remove the peel from the lemon with a vegetable peeler. A serrated 
peeler works best for this. You want to remove just the yellow part 
of the peel, with little of the bitter white part.

Put the sugar and lemon peelings in a food processor and process 
until the peels are completely incorporated into the sugar.

Put the lemon sugar and butter into a stand mixer and cream until 
light and fluffy - a full 5 minutes.

Beat in each of the eggs, one by one, making sure each egg is fully 
incorporated before adding the next one. Continue beating for another 
2 to 3 minutes.

Whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt and add to the 
mixer, alternately with the buttermilk, beginning and ending with dry 
ingredients. Finish mixing by hand, to make sure everything is 
thoroughly mixed, but don't over beat.

Turn the batter into the prepared pan, spread out evenly, and bake on 
the center rack for 50 to 55 minutes, or until fully risen and a 
toothpick inserted near the center comes out without wet batter 
clinging to it (moist crumbs are fine.)

Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then remove, using the 
parchment paper handles, and let fully cool on a rack.

Meanwhile whisk together the sugar with enough lemon juice to make a 
thick glaze. Spread the glaze over the cooled bread.
