Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a loaf pan.
In a mixing bowl, combine the butter and sugar. Beat on medium speed with an electric mixer until creamed together. With the mixer running, add the eggs one at a time, beating each one until fully incorporated.
With the mixer running, add the salt and baking powder, then the milk. Mix well. Slowly add the flour and beat until well mixed.
Stir in the nuts and lemon rind by hand then pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan.
Place the pan in the oven and bake at 350 degrees F for 50 minutes or until it tests done in the center.
For the glaze, mix together the sugar and lemon juice. Drizzle over the lemon bread while warm. Let cool before slicing. Store in an airtight container at room temperature.

Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.

I looked at a lot of lemon bread/cake recipes before trying this one. This recipe delivers the kind of pastry you'd find in a fancy bakery, but it's not hard to make! We LOVE this bread.

DELECTABLE! This is the best bread I have ever made. It's moist and lemony and delicious. I added a tablespoon of poppyseed to my recipe; I also made the glaze with 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar instead of granulated. It melts and makes a crust over the bread; the whole thing tastes more like cake than bread! YUM!
