BEST HOMEMADE LEMON BREAD

Please See Other Recipes

Now that I cookie baked myself out, I thought there’s more to Christmas than just cookies and bars. So  I want to share one of the most delicious and requested quick breads I have ever eaten or made.
When I was a kid there was a lemon cologne we used to wear, I loved it, just wish I could find it again. This Easy Lemon Bread Recipe is a simple, easy and really good loaf that tastes so yummy.
Best Homemade Lemon Bread is perfect as a breakfast bread or even with afternoon tea.  It is so easy to make, no need for beaters, it is very much like making muffins.  All you need is a pastry blender (I usually use a fork) and a fork or wooden spoon for mixing.
