The secret to this four-ingredient lemon pound cake is sweetened condensed milk. Dense but moist, it makes a great base for strawberry shortcake. When served by itself, I top it with a simple lemon juice and powdered sugar glaze.
Ingredients
- 3 large eggs
- 1 can sweetened condensed milk , 14 ounce
- 0.25 cups fresh lemon juice
- 4 teaspoons lemon zest , optional
- 1.25 cups self-rising flour
Instructions
-
1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a 9x5-inch loaf pan with nonstick spray, line bottom and sides with parchment paper, and spray again with nonstick cooking spray. Set aside.

Whisk eggs, sweetened condensed milk, lemon juice, and lemon zest in a bowl. Add flour and mix just until flour is moistened. Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan.

Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 55 to 65 minutes. Cool completely on a wire rack before removing from the pan.
