Bright, tender, and bursting with citrus, this Lemon Pound Cake Recipe delivers a moist cake that’s perfect for teatime or a light dessert.
I tested this cake over three weeks—tweaking sugar levels, zest amounts, and bake times until I got that perfect crumb. If your lemons are small, add an extra one or boost juice to keep the tang. For ultra-moist results, swap half the yogurt for sour cream—trust me, your guests will notice. Watch the bake time closely; loaf pans vary, and you don’t want dryness creeping in.
