Ingredients

Loaf Cake
Frosting

Directions

Loaf Cake
  1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. and line a 9x5 loaf pan with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine your flour, baking powder, salt and lemon zest. Set aside.
  3. Using a stand or hand mixer, cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. 
  4. Add in the eggs one at a time, then add all your extracts and beat until well combined.
  5. With the mixer on low, add 1/3 of the flour mixture and mix until almost combined, add in half of the butter milk. Repeat with another third of the flour and other half of the buttermilk, ending with the last 1/3 of flour. Beat until just incorporated. 
  6. Pour batter into your loaf pan and bake for 45-55 minutes or until cake is golden brown and a toothpick comes out mostly clean. Allow to cool completely.
Frosting
  1. Once your cake is completely cooled, add your powdered sugar into a bowl with the heavy cream, extract, and food color. Mix until smooth. The frosting should be thick and creamy.
  2. Top with fresh lemon and dried lavender. 
  3. Serve and enjoy!
Notes
  • If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by combining 1/2 cup of milk and 1.5 tsp lemon juice or white vinegar and wait a few minutes for it to curdle. 
  • You can add more powdered sugar or heavy cream to achieve your desired frosting consistency.
