Lemon Tea Bread Recipe
LEMON TEA BREAD This recipe came from an estate sale. I obtained it when I purchased the family collection from the Abrams Estate in Mesquite, Texas in 1998.

I have never heard of this. Sounds fantastic!


This is a really nice version of a lemon tea bread. No wonder the Abrams family saved it. ;-)
The glaze really seals in the flavor much as the lemon pound cake's one does on the cake I have posted and that makes it wonderfully moist. This is a lovely recipe and the nuts a nice embellishment.


Sounds like a winner! Love to try this recipe.


Looks does delicious, easy and mouthwatering! ~~~Judy~~~
