Lemon Cake Mix Bread
We always love a non-yeast bread recipe that is delicious AND simple. Some may argue that using a cake mix to make bread is cheating but I think it’s genius.
The hubby claims this is his new favorite bread. I may have to agree with him. I’m not a HUGE Lemon fan, but this recipe had just the right amount of lemon that it wasn’t overwhelming at all. And the glaze on top was definitely my favorite part.
We can’t wait for you to try some of this delicious bread!! If you like Lemon and White Chocolate I’d definitely give this one a try.
How to make
COMBINE. Mix cake mix, pudding mix, oil and eggs in a bowl with a beater until well combined. Add sour cream, lemon juice and lemon zest. Mix by hand. Pour into greased loaf pans.
BAKE. Bake at 350 for about 45 minutes (For smaller loaf pans, bake for about 15 minutes). Let cool.
GLAZE. Poke holes in the top of the bread and drizzle with glaze (To make, mix 1 1/2 cup powdered sugar, juice and zest of one lemon – add more lemon juice if glaze is too thick). ENJOY!
Tips + Storing Info
- Use a different flavor of pudding mix for the glaze, lemon or vanilla pudding make great options to sub for the white chocolate.
- Substitute plain Greek yogurt or cottage cheese for sour cream. Just make sure that you arenโt using the low fat varieties.
- Make mini-loaves of this bread. Fill your mini pans no more than ยฝ way full and check on them every 5 min after 25 min of cooking. Once a toothpick comes out clean they are ready to take out of the oven.
Make this bread ahead of time and FREEZE (before you add the glaze) for up to 6 months. Once it has cooled simply wrap it in plastic wrap and then store it in a Ziploc freezer bag or wrapped in aluminum foil. It would also be best to wait to add the glaze until after you have thawed it in the fridge overnight, and then brought it to room temperature.
STORE covered in in the fridge for a few days.

I read through the comments to look for answers to the questions I had. Several had the same questions that I do, and they were not answered. What size pans (taking it is regular size bread loaf pans) and how many, as the directions say to pour into greased loaf pans??? Also, directions to mix powdered sugar with lime juice. Life isn’t listed as an ingredient. Is it Lime or Lemon?
You can make it as 2 regular size loaf pans or smaller ones… I added some info under NOTES above. And the glaze calls for lemon… not lime. Sorry about that. :/
Can you tell me what size of pan you used and is there really lime in the glaze? Thanks! It looks fantastic!!
HI Pam. So sorry for the confusion… we used small paper pans, but I added in the notes different times for different sizes of pans. ๐
This bread is amazing! I cooked it a little longer than I should, but now I know how long it’ll take w/ my oven & loaf pan. I am NOT a baker, thanks for giving me back the confidence to try! I’m eating leftovers as I type this… YUM!
Thanks for stopping by Tabitha! SO glad you were able to make this and that it turned out great!! Be sure to try my other bread recipes because they are just as good AND just as easy! Have a great day. ๐
Oh, don’t you worry! I’m planning on banana bread next. I’ll let you know how that one goes!
Great! Definitely keep me posted. ๐
Looks yummy! What size pan?
Just mixed mine up and about to pop in the oven!! Simply CANNOT wait to taste this!!
I made it! It came out beautifully and everybody loved it and said it was “crazy good”!!!
YAY! SO glad to hear it. Thanks for stopping by to let me know how it turned out. ๐ Have a great day!
So the glaze calls for lime juice. Is that a misprint? You just don’t mention lime anywhere else…..
The lemon bread looks super delicious!! It seems more like cake than bread lol. Anyway, pinning because I DO want to try it!
