Lemon Cake Dessert. Last month my mother in law made a breakfast loaf my son couldn’t stop eating. I wanted to make something similar. Lemon helps to prevent the cake from becoming too heavy. Citrus makes the cake light and refreshing. A slice of lemon always brightens up a dish with a lovely yellow color. Also, lemon can help with the greasiness of the food.

Loaf goes with
What goes well with a loaf cake? A homemade fruit sauce with fresh berries or fruit cooked to reduce. How about a lovely jar of fruit jam from blueberries to strawberry jam. If the preference is to have a fruity loaf cake or just a simple icing on top. Another thing, this can be treated as a dessert after dinner maybe with a scoop of ice cream on top. A healthier option is to sprinkle some nuts on top.
