Lemon Sourdough Bread

1 stick of butter at room temperature
1 cup sugar
Grated rind of 1 lemon
2 eggs
2 1/2 cups flour
1/2 tsp salt
3/4 tsp baking soda
1/3 cup lemon juice

Confectioner's Icing: Combine 1 cup confectioner's sugar with 2 tsp lemon juice and enough water to make a creamy frosting.


Recipe



Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a 9-inch loaf pan. Cream the
butter with the sugar and grated rind until light and fluffy. Add the
eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Combine the
flour, salt and baking soda. In a small bowl combine the lemon juice
and water. Add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture alternately
with the lemon mixture, beating until fluffy. Fold in the sourdough
starter until batter is smooth. Pour into the loaf pan and bake 1
hour, or until bread tests done. Leave the bread in the pan and place
on wire rack 10 minutes. Cool thoroughly. Brush with the
Confectioner's Icing.
