Lemon Loaf

Hello Ladies!
I thought I would add a very quick and easy recipe. It makes 2 loaves, and freezes very well.

1 pkg. Lemon Cake Mix
1 pkg. Instant Lemon Pudding mix
1/2 cup Canola oil (or other vegetable oil)
1 cup Water OR 3/4 cup water plus 1/4 cup lemon juice (I prefer the lemon juice)
4 Eggs

Glaze:

1/4 cup Icing sugar
2 T. Lemon juice

Combine first 5 ingredients and beat with electric mixer for 4 minutes. Pour into 2 greased loaf pans. Bake at 350 for 50-60 minutes. (I tend closer to 60 min.)

After removing from oven, use a fork and poke small holes all over the top of the loaves. Mix sugar and lemon juice to make a thin paste. Spread over hot loaves. Let cool approx. 10 minutes before removing from pans.

To freeze, I wrap the loaf in wax paper and then put it into a freezer bag.

Ness actually made this for us a few weeks ago. I complimented her on it, and she told me, sheepishly, how easy it was. Nothing to be ashamed of! What can be better than good food made easy?
