Lemon Loaf (Norway)

One of our family’s new favorites.

Beat until thick:

2 cups sugar (500 ml)

3 eggs

Add and mix until blended:

1 cup margarine, melted (250 ml)

1/2 cup potato flour (125 ml) or substitute cornstarch or all  purpose flour

2 1/2 cups white flour (625 ml)

2 teaspoons baking powder (10 ml)

1 cup milk (250 ml)

rind of 1 lemon

Preheat oven to 350 degrees (160 C). Pour batter into 2 loaf pans, greased and floured on the bottoms only. Bake 50-60 minutes. Remove from pans. While still warm, glaze with thick paste of juice of 1 lemon and confectioner’s sugar. Serve in slices with fresh fruit or sherbet.
