Lemon Bread with Lemon Glaze

Lemon Bread with Lemon Glaze
variation from Cooking and Baking with Fresh Ground Flour
 8 oz. butter (could use coconut oil)
 2 c. sugar ( we did cut this down 1 1/2 c.)
 4 eggs
3 c. freshly milled flour
1 T. lemon juice
1/2 c. sugar
 2 lemons (Grate rind, juice lemons and set aside)
 2 t. baking powder
1/2 c. milk (Swiss whey milk)
1 t. salt
Preheat oven to 350. Lightly oil 2 medium loaf pans. Cream together butter and sugar. Add eggs one at a time, beating well. Add lemon rind, 1 T.lemon juice and milk. Mix the flour, baking powder and salt in.  Pour into prepared pans. Bake for 45-60 min.Meanwhile: Mix the juice from the lemons to 1/2 c. sugar. Set Aside.
 When done cooking turn the pans over on a cake rack covered with wax paper, drizzle the loaves with the lemon/sugar mixture (we did poke holes with a fork to really let the glaze soak in)
Enjoy!!!
