I tried super easy Lemon Loaf cake twisted with crunchy almond flakes. Whole lemons juice is the base of this simple lemon cake batter that makes for an intensely flavored cake. It’s a family-friendly dessert.
This Moist Lemon Cake Recipe is tangy and super easy to make without any preparation! Each bite of this loaf cake is overflowing with lemon flavor. It’s one of my preferred evening or breakfast treats and everybody likes it.

This batter is made with freshly grated lemon zest and fresh lemon juice. And then after cooling down the pound cake you can top it with the most flavorful lemon coating or lemon icing cream or whatever you like.
This lemon cake isn’t dry and not fudgy, it’s perfectly moist, fluffy inside and crunchy outside top. It saves new for a couple of days! An ideal cake for each event. If you like lemon treats, you must check out this cake!

Notes
- Don’t leave the lemon zest that is the main thing that gives it the great lemony flavor! I generally utilize fresh natural lemons.
- For the best flavor use freshly squeezed lemon juice! Don’t use the bottled stuff, trust me fresh lemon juice tastes so much better.
- This cake would also taste great with lime juice or orange juice
- This cake keeps well covered at room temperature for up to 3-4 days.
