Description

This is my go-to lemon glaze recipe! Made with fresh lemon zest and juice and whisked together in less than 2 minutes, it’s perfect to drizzle over pound cake, homemade scones, or lemon poppy seed muffins.


Ingredients

  • 1 Tbsp (14 g) unsalted butter, melted
  • pinch of salt
  • 2 tsp (2 g) fresh lemon zest
  • 2 Tbsp (30 g) fresh lemon juice
  • 1 cup (120 g) powdered sugar


Instructions

  1. Whisk together melted butter, salt, lemon zest, juice, and powdered sugar in a small bowl until smooth.
  2. Use glaze immediately.
  3. Store leftover glaze covered in the refrigerator for up to a week. Warm in the microwave in 10-second bursts, whisking until smooth.
