Starbucks Lemon Loaf

Starbucks Lemon Loaf is a popular lemon-flavored dessert offered at Starbucks coffee shops. It’s a sweet and tangy treat that pairs perfectly with a cup of coffee. While I can’t provide you with the exact Starbucks recipe, I can offer a general recipe for a lemon loaf that you can try making at home. Here’s a basic recipe for a lemon loaf cake:

Ingredients:

For the Cake:

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/3 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons lemon zest (from about 2 lemons)
  • 1/2 cup buttermilk
  • 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice

For the Lemon Glaze:

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

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a loaf pan.
  2. In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In another bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until it becomes light and fluffy.
  4. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the lemon zest.
  5. Gradually mix in the dry ingredients, alternating with the buttermilk and lemon juice. Begin and end with the dry ingredients.
  6. Pour the batter into the greased loaf pan and bake in the preheated oven for about 45-55 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. While the cake is baking, prepare the lemon glaze. In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar and enough lemon juice to achieve your desired glaze consistency.
  8. Once the cake is done, remove it from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for a few minutes. Then, remove the cake from the pan and transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
  9. Once the cake is cool, drizzle the lemon glaze over the top.
  10. Slice and enjoy your homemade lemon loaf!

This recipe is a close approximation to the Starbucks Lemon Loaf, and it should satisfy your craving for a delicious lemon-flavored treat. You can adjust the amount of lemon juice in the glaze to suit your taste, making it more or less tangy.
