Gluten Free Lemon Pound Cake

"When life gives you lemons, make this gluten free pound cake. Bursting with bright citrus flavor and finished with a tangy two-ingredient glaze, this recipe proves that a classic can still be bold and sassy. The secret? A little cornstarch added to your favorite 1:1 gluten-free flour blend. It transforms the texture into that dense-but-tender crumb you expect from a proper pound cake while keeping the method fuss-free. This loaf isn’t shy about its lemon identity. Lemon zest gets massaged into the sugar before baking, releasing aromatic oils that make the batter sing with citrus. No artificial extracts here—just pure lemon flavor. And the finishing touch, a quick lemon glaze, doubles down on that zippy, sweet-tart vibe with nothing more than confectioner’s sugar and fresh lemon juice."
