Ingredients
for greasing the pan
plus 2 tablespoons for sprinkling
plus more for serving (optional)
(1 stick), melted
optional
Equipment
Loaf Pan
Medium bowl
Small bowl
Whisk
Spatula
Grater
Parchment paper
Instructions
1
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a 9 by 4-inch loaf pan (see Note) with nonstick cooking spray or butter, and line it with parchment, leaving some overhang on both of the longer sides so you’re able to easily lift the cake out after baking.
Nonstick Cooking Spray Or Butter for greasing the pan
2
Whisk the flour, baking powder, salt, and turmeric in a medium bowl.
1.5 cups All-purpose Flour 2 teaspoons Baking Powder 1 teaspoon Kosher Salt 0.75 teaspoon Ground Turmeric
3
Grate 2 tablespoons zest from 1 lemon into a medium bowl. Halve the zested lemon and squeeze 2 tablespoons juice into a small bowl. Cut half the remaining whole lemon into thin rounds, discarding seeds (save the other half for another use).
2 Lemons
4
In a large bowl, combine 1 cup of the sugar with the lemon zest and rub together with your fingertips until the sugar is tinted yellow and smells like you just rubbed a lemon in there. Whisk in the sour cream, eggs, and the lemon juice until well blended.
1 cup Granulated Sugar plus 2 tablespoons for sprinkling0.75 cup Sour Cream Or Full-fat Greek Yogurt plus more for serving (optional)2 large Eggs
5
Using a spatula, add the wet mixture to the flour mixture, stirring just to blend. Fold in the melted butter. Scrape the batter into the prepared pan, smoothing the top. Scatter the top with the lemon slices and remaining 2 tablespoons sugar.
0.5 cup Unsalted Butter (1 stick), melted
6
Bake until the top of the cake is golden brown, the edges pull away from the sides of the pan, and a tester inserted in the center comes out clean, 50 to 60 minutes. (I love deeply caramelized lemon, but if they’re getting too dark, lay a piece of foil on top to prevent burning.) Let cool before slicing.
7
DO AHEAD: Cake can be baked up to 5 days ahead, wrapped tightly, and stored at room temperature.
