Recipe

Preparation Time: 25 mins Cook Time: 1 hr

Ready Time: 1 hr 25 mins


• preheat oven to 350 degrees f (175 degrees c). grease a 4x8-inch loaf pan.
• beat white sugar and butter in a large bowl until light and fluffy. add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. stir juice and zest of one lemon into butter mixture.
• mix flour, baking powder, and salt in a separate bowl; add to butter mixture alternately with milk, mixing until batter is just incorporated. fold in coconut, mixing just enough to evenly combine. pour the batter into prepared loaf pan.
• bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 60 to 65 minutes. cool in the pan for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.
• gradually stir 2 teaspoons lemon juice into confectioners' sugar in a bowl until mixture is thin enough to drizzle. transfer mixture to a resealable plastic bag. cut a small hole in the corner of the bag. gently squeeze bag and drizzle mixture evenly over the loaf.
