Image of LemonsThis glazed lemon bread recipe has butter, sugar, eggs, lemon zest, milk, and chopped pecans. Serve for breakfast or brunch.

The lemon glaze is applied warm and soaks in to the bread to make this quick bread recipe absolutely lemony and delicious. Also try this lemon bread recipe for an afternoon snack or as a dessert bread.

Breakfast and Brunch Serving Ideas:

Serve this lemon quick bread warm or cold with butter, honey, or just plain with nothing on top. Try cream cheese as a spread by flavoring cream cheese with lemon or orange juice for even more citrus flavor. Quick breads taste great with orange, berry or banana fruit smoothies.
