Lemon Pound Cake

What makes the Lemon Pound Cake stand out amongst others is the refreshing and zesty incorporation of citrus. Lemon is used for both the cake batter and the glaze, which makes the pound cake feel lighter and extra moist. The Lemon Pound Cake made with gluten-free flour, such as yellow dry pea flour, offers a modern take on the lemony delight.
