I used the William Sonoma citrus loaf pan, and in 65 minutes the middle was still a bit wet. My mistake in an overpour of lemon juice and vanilla. Added 2T lemon zest, and the flavor overall was great. I will attempt this again with correct proportions. Served with a warm mixed berry sauce; family and friends gave the thumbs up.
I used the Williams Sonoma citrus pound loaf pan and it turned out beautifully. The only thing I did differently was to add a little extra citrus extract and to be honest the pound loaf still turned out buttery with only a very hint of citrus. I highly recommend this recipe and the pan and would be happy to use again.
The recipe is delicious and moist… if you’re looking for a stronger lemon flavor add the zest of 1 lemon.
Just bought citrus pan and tried it with own recipe… it was a hit.. now family wants to have it for coffee reunions ..
This is a great recipe. Always comes good. My family loves it.
Tris is a great recepy.
