Verdict:
Thumbs up! I love lemon bread and this was a great recipe! Not sure if it is really the copycat recipe or not, but it's definitely yummy! I actually do have a lemon bread recipe that is a lot different from this one that I have never posted on this blog! It is even more lemonicious than this recipe! I will make it soon and post it - in involves lemon pudding which adds some more zing. I think this is an awesome, simple recipe that you can easily whip up for dessert or brunch or a potluck. I highly recommend it and I'll be making it again!
