Yogurt Lemon Loaf

(Created on a whim at an Airbnb with what I had on hand, inspired by one of my past proprietary bakery loaves.)

This lemon loaf was born during a quiet week away from my kitchen — no stand mixer, no scales beyond the basics, just me, a whisk, and a few simple ingredients from Walmart. I wanted a moist, tangy, deeply lemony loaf that felt like spring sunshine in a pan — the kind you can make anywhere and still feel like a pro baker. What I ended up with was tender, bright, and glossy with lemon icing that melts right into the warm crumb.
