Weight Watchers has changed their program. The points listed on my blog for WW points is for the old Momentum program.

I will be updating my recipes for the new Points Plus program. I am going to list the 4 nutrients needed to calculate the Points Plus for the recipe so that you can easily figure the PP per serving.

I am going to leave the old Momentum Points in case anybody is still following that program.

Lemon Bread ~ Allrecipes

1 cup cake flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
3 eggs
1 cup white sugar
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon lemon extract (I also add the zest of a lemon)
6 tablespoons hot milk

Preheat oven to 350F.

In a medium bowl mix together flour, salt and baking powder.

In a large bowl, beat eggs until fluffy and lemon colored. Gradually beat in sugar. Stir in lemon juice and flavoring. Add sifted flour mixture gradually while beating; beat only enough to blend. Add hot milk quickly 1 tablespoon at a time, beating until blended. Pour into ungreased loaf pan.  (I do spray mine with oil).

Bake 350 degrees F for 45 to 55 minutes, or until golden brown and firm to touch. Invert, and cool in pan. Then loosen sides, and turn out on cake rack to cool completely.

YIELD:  12 slices
1 slice = 3 WW points

I make a glaze for this.  I squeeze the juice of one lemon and whisk in powdered sugar until it is as thick as I want.  Drizzle over the loaf.  I've not adjusted points for this because it is only a little bit.

I've as much as quadrupled this recipe and it has turned out great each time.
