This lemon bread is delicious. I used sour cream and followed the recipe exactly. There was a slight dent which is normal in breads of this type...nothing to be concerned about. It had a lovely texture and perfect balance between sweet and tart. I will definitely make this again.

The flavor of this tea bread is great, I also used Myer lemons. However, it has caved in twice now. I Googled why and it seems the amount of baking powder is too much. I looked up the Ina Garten recipe and she only adds a 1/2 tsp of baking powder and baking soda.(total 1 tsp. Give it a try with just a tsp...

After a few tries that caved in quite a bit in the center, I think I have finally perfected the technique to get a perfect, slightly rounded top to the loaf. I used greek yogurt, about 2 tbsp more than the recipe called for, and whisked the dry ingredients into the mixture rather than folding. Then I let the mix rest for about 5 minutes before stirring in the melted butter, and cook for 10 minutes at 400 before turning it down. The result has been perfect 3 times in a row, and so delicious. My family can't get enough of this bread as an afternoon snack.

Wonderful fresh Lemon flavor. I too used Meyer Lemons. My only complaint is that at different times I have baked 5 loaves total. Four of them all caved a bit in the center. Even keeping the oven at 400 degrees for 10min instead of 8 didn't help. But I will still keep on baking. Maybe someone will figure out why we are all having our loaves cave in the middle!!!!!

Made three loaves, my family ate ours in the first day, the other two gave away and got raves and all wanted the recipe! I used sour cream on two of the loaves, and flavored yogurt on the third. Flavored yogurt a little too sweet for me but that's all I had. Still got raves though.
