Every lemon season my oven births at least 5 lemon loaves. I’m very keen on the use of big yellow fresh lemons as in my opinion they ooze the most intense lemon flavor. And the good thing about cake is that it can be enjoyed at any time of the day #breakfast as a teatime tag along, a post #lunch filling snack or dessert following a light #dinner
