Lemon Loaf Cake - Tuesdays with Dorie (BwJ)

Lemon Loaf Cake

Tuesdays with Dorie - Baking with Julia edition

This week, the Tuesdays with Dorie group tackled a lovely Lemon Loaf Cake. I just love all things lemon. Made with cake flour, this loaf has a nice, delicate crumb.

Some bakers made a glaze to top the cake...that sounds like a good idea. Be sure to check out the other Tuesdays with Dorie members!

And my lovely platter? It's made by Gary Holt pottery in Berkeley, California. You know when you walk into a place and can see everything fit perfectly in your house? That's Gary's studio to me. He's holding a summer sale soon...if you are in Northern California, please visit his lovely studio. Nothing gets more local than buying it from an artist in his studio!

Recipe:
The Tuesdays with Dorie group encourages you to support cookbook authors like Dorie Greenspan and purchase the book. You won't be disappointed! You can also check WorldCat to see if your local library has the book.

Date-Nut Loaf - Tuesdays with Dorie

Date-Nut Loaf

For this week's Tuesdays with Dorie selection, Mary of Popsicles and Sandy Feet picked Date-Nut Loaf of Dorie's book, Baking: From My Home to Yours.


My buddy Mary got to pick another Tuesdays with Dorie treat. (We made our way through all the bakers and some lucky bakers won a random drawing to pick again!)

I made 1/4 the recipe and got three mini loaves. Aren't these cute?

One of the perks of making 1/4th of the recipe? That you have a leftover bag of dates to snack on! Have you had a date shake? Deliciousness. 

Check out the other Tuesdays with Dorie bakers and see their creations!

My loaves were filled with dates and walnuts...but you can use any dried fruits and nuts.
