List of Ingredients
1/2 cup butter
1 cup sugar
2 eggs
1 2/3 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup key lime yogurt
1 1/2 teaspoons finely shredded lime peel
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/3 cup chopped almonds, walnuts, or pecans, toasted
2 tablespoons lime juice
1 tablespoon sugar
Recipe
Grease bottom and 1/2" up sides of one 8x4x2"loaf pan or two 7 1/2x3-1/2x2" loaf pans. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl beat butter with an electric mixer on medium speed about 30 seconds or until softened.
Add the 1 cup sugar and beat about 5 minutes, or until light and fluffy.
Add eggs, one at a time, beating until combined.
Add flour, yogurt, lime peel, baking soda, and salt. Beat until just combined.
Stir in nuts.
Pour batter into prepared pan(s) and spread evenly.
Bake in a 350 oven about 45 minutes for 8x4x2" loaf, and about 40 minutes for 7 1/2x31/2x2" loaves, or until a wooden toothpick inserted near center(s) comes out clean. (If necessary, cover loosely with foil for the last 10-15 minutes of baking to prevent over browning.

Place on wire rack set over waxed paper.
In a small mixing bowl stir together 3 tablespoons lime juice and 1 tablespoon sugar until sugar is dissolved.
Spoon on glaze.
