Wow...we really loved the sweet/tart lemon flavor of this bread. This goes together very quickly and is so full of flavor. To boost the lemon flavor a bit, I added 1/2 tsp. lemon extract to the batter, and 1/4 tsp. to the topping. After the bread had cooled for 5 mins., I poked holes all over the top surface of the loaf and then poured on the topping. The topping soaked down into the bread. Yummy!! Thank you for sharing this quick, easy, and delicious recipe. It is definitely a keeper. *Made for Bargain Basement tag*
