If you love the distinctly lemony taste of Starbucks' Lemon Loaf Cake, you'll love this copycat restaurant recipe. Starbucks Copycat Lemon Loaf is a recipe for lemon cake from scratch that tastes just like the coffee shop version! It's super moist, perfectly dense, and bursting with tangy flavor of lemon. Plus, it's simple to make and everyone is sure to love it. Once the loaf is cooled, smother it with the sweet glaze that makes it a heavenly addition to morning coffee.

Just ok. Not delicious. Burnt around the entire edge of loaf and I had it in less that 55 min. So so

The recipe says to bake it for 45-55 minutes, so next time I would try it for about 40 minutes or so first! My oven likes to cook things too quickly, too, so I usually set the timer for less than what the recipe recommends.
