Ingrédients

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 1/2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup whole milk
  • 2 teaspoons loose leaf Earl Grey tea
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan.
  • In a small saucepan, heat the milk until just about boiling. Remove from heat and steep the Earl Grey tea for 5 minutes. Strain and let cool.
  • In a large bowl, cream together the butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  • Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in vanilla extract.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
  • Alternate adding the dry ingredients and the cooled tea-infused milk to the butter mixture, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
  • Bake for 45-50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • While the cake is baking, prepare the lemon glaze by whisking together powdered sugar, lemon juice, and lemon zest until smooth.
  • Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Once the cake is cool, drizzle the lemon glaze over the top. Let it set before slicing.
