I'm 77, diagnosed with ALS may 5, 2015 and neurologist said I had 2-5 year life expectancy. My maiden name is Godfrey and we were late for just about everything and guess I'm certainly carrying on the family tradition because I'm 3 years beyond my expiration date 😊 I'm confined to a wheelchair 24/7, sold the homestead and friend offered us their in-law apartment. The confined kitchen is narrow and my Permobile F3 chair can go into it but I can't turn around. I tried cooking but the space and I can't stand but for a few seconds I gave up trying UNTIL I found your channel. I enjoyed them as entertainment then several spoke to me and I have successfully made several of your recipes. I'm not as quick as you but I've surprised myself and cooking more often than I ever thought I would or could. Thank you both for giving me the inspiration to try, without you both it surely would not have happened 💗 I also love lemon and one of my many happy childhood memories is my mom's Lemon Sponge Pie, have you ever made one! Ma passed away age 95 when I brought her home with Hospice October 25, 2008, she passed Nov 4. Lemon Sponge Pie Ma's (Edith Godfrey of Raynham, MA)......... YUMMY Cream 3 Tbs butter & 3/4C sugar Add 2 egg yolks (one at a time) 1 Tbs grated lemon rind 1/4 C lemon juice 3 Tbs flour 1/8 tsp salt and mix well. Stir in 1 C milk Beat 2 egg whites until stiff but not dry and fold into lemon mixture. Pour into unbaked pastry shell Bake 425°F for 10 minutes. Turn temperature down to 300°F for 30 minutes. Don't cut hot, let cool to form sponge on top, custard like on the bottom.
You can put the eggs in the mixer bowl, beat them then add remaining ingredients. Saves a dirty bowl. Looks delicious. I guess you could do this with other flavors. Nice Recipe. Thank You!
I love your videos and recipes. BTW this is a very old recipe that was on Duncan Hines cake mix boxes in the 70's and 80's. The measurements and ingredients are the same except they didnt boil the water. It was called Pudding Pound Cake. I use it any time I make a cake from a mix. It's good for a decorated cake for occasions.
This lemon bread looks absolutely delicious. Can't wait to try it. I enjoy your videos so much. I feel like Tom and Melissa are right here in my kitchen preparing the dishes with me because your videos are so easy to follow. Thank you for sharing your table with us. God Bless you both!
Made this to bring to my church group. It was a breeze to make and I liked that it made 2 loaves. I added blueberries because I had them and it was very good. Thanks for the recipe.
I love this!! I'm not a big fan of really rich and sweet desserts. But something like this is not so overpowering with lots of sugar. I make a quick banana bread with just a box of yellow cake mix, 2 eggs, and 3-4 mashed banana's (I mash them up by hand). You can also add 1/2 c. nuts (I like walnuts) if you wish. This makes a very thick batter. Divide between 2 greased loaf pans and bake at 350 for about 35 minutes. We eat one loaf and wrap the other in foil and zip lock bag to freeze for later. But it never stays in the freezer very long! 😉
Tom!!! Melissa!!! You never came back!!! I was at the edge of my seat!!!! Best part of these videos is the first bite!!!! Gonna need a follow up! love u guys!
I have no idea what's happened to the ending, but we will put this one in our schedule and "fix" it. Clearly, we're not professionals here! But it does sound like a really great excuse to make this wonderful bread again! Find the positives I believe!
I've used this same recipe for 40 years .. but I make it a pound cake... but I use lemon jello.... no butter in the glaze... while the cake is still warm I poke holes in it then pour the glaze on it!! Yum yummy
That sounds really good, too! My mom makes one very similar but in a cake pan. She pokes the holes in it and adds a glaze. it’s so moist. Hers in orange flavored, however. This is very much like a cake- just made into loaves.
Just made the lemon bread today! It was so easy to make! It needed to bake 45 minutes in my gas oven. It is so light!!! Delicious!!! Thank you Tom and Melissa for introducing this New Jersey family to Southern cooking!!! 😊
This looks delicious. I love lemon bread. Bob Evans use to sell lemon bread but the last few times I've been in there, they do not sell or make it anymore. So now, thanks to you, I can make it myself.
Thank you for the informative videos with such good food. When I make lemon bread I always put 2-3 Tablespoons of poppy seed in it. Have done this for years.. Keep up your fine presentations please!
Oh you didn’t come back Tom. I’m just going to have to make my own 😊 to find out how delicious it looks and tastes 😀. And thank you, I’ve “binged” watched you all weekend ha. Hello from Sydney Australia
Your comment has really tickled us tonight. And we are so happy to have you watching. We are cruising to Brisbane, Australia in just a few weeks. We are very excited to get there.
F.Y.I. 6 tablespoons of liquid equals ¼ cup plus ⅛ or 2 tablespoons. I have one of those liquid measuring cups that you can see the measurements from the top as well as the traditional sides & one of them is a 4 tablespoon or ¼ cup. I believe it's made by Oxo. I love them because I don't have to bend down to eyeball it while it's on the counter or trying to hold it up & hope I'm holding it straight just to read how much is in there. It measures 1, 2, 3, & 4 tablespoons of liquid only. Don't use liquid cups to measure dry & don't use dry measuring cups for liquids cause you're not getting an accurate reading. I recognize this recipe as a pound cake I make using the box cake. I've made the lemon, chocolate, and yellow ones in my tube or bundle pan. I love them! I bet a yellow cake with pistachio pudding and some pistachios in the cake would be delicious, too!Sometimes, I add a little shredded coconut in the lemon. I love coconut & lemon together as well as the blueberry with lemon! I just made a birthday cake for a friend using a yellow box cake & instead of adding the water & oil, I used equal amounts of coconut milk, a tiny bit of coconut extract & my vanilla extract, and a little shredded coconut in the batter. After it was completely cooled, I finished with very well drained crushed pineapple in between the layers. I whipped up some lightly sweetened whipped cream with a dash of my homemade vanilla extract & frosted the whole cake. Then, I sprinkled a little more shredded coconut on top. Delicious! It's one of my favorite cakes! It reminds me of my childhood when my grandmother used to make that cake, except she made her cake from scratch. I don't remember if she used coconut or not. But, either way, it's delicious! Love your channel! ❤❤
My husband loved lemon anything. I just found you two today with the first video watched chicken and dressing casserole then chicken and dumpling casserole now this. Loved all of them and subscribed quickly. I have to say, I'm still waiting to see the slice of the cake and the taste. Lol
Well yum!! I can't wait to give this a try. I enjoy your videos and especially love that the recipes have been loved for many years. Thank you for sharing!
I’ve never had lemon bread before. But thanks to this video that’s going to change real soon. My parents have a cabin and I am the cook when I visit. I will make this for them
We hope you all enjoy it! It’s really closer to cake than bread but it’s a great accompaniment to tea or coffee in the morning! Thank you for watching our video. We appreciate it!
@@comesitatmytable9044 I got the ingredients and finally found time to make it. I haven’t tried it it but it looks fantastic. I didn’t have any blueberries but I did have some flaked coconut so I added that. I also added a hint of orange and blueberry juice to the glaze I wish I could share the results. You need a website or Facebook page where we can share our versions of your recipes
@@patrickschardt7724 go to Facebook and look at Come Sit at My Table. We’re a bit off on getting everything on the Facebook page but we will be working on it. Thanks for sharing!
Looks great. My question is, how come the eggs don't start to cook when you pour in the boiling water? I always thought you had to temper the eggs with the hot liquid.
This looks delicious!!! Is there a certain technique of adding the water so it doesn’t cook the eggs before I get it mixed? I am having a rough time baking lately so I want to make sure I have the process right and not ruin the cake.
That bread looks delicious. I am wondering if that beater came with your mixer or if you bought it separately? It looks better than mine. I really enjoy your channel. Thank you.
Hi Tom/Chris and Melissa, like you I’m a big fan of anything lemon.. Lemon pie, cake, bread or a glass of ice cold lemonade..This recipe looks like a keeper.. Oh, I want to thank y’all for the added pounds, trying all these recipes are making me have mega thighs !… lol… Hey, don’t forget to “ Put A Lid On It “…..
Made it twice... its great. The only problem is that my mother-in-law likes it and that means she will be over to the house more often. May not make it again for awhile.
Hi I made this cake to bring to a friend and she just loved it thank. you so much. Would you have a recipe for meatloaf? thanks for all your recipes and deserts. Cathy
I’m so glad your friend liked it. That makes us happy! We do have a meatloaf - I’ll ask Tom to add it to our list for future recipes! Thanks so much for watching. We really appreciate it.
I, too, love everything lemon. Actually I like all your recipes so far. Do you have or have you thought of putting together a cookbook? I'll be first in line. Enjoy your UA-cams.
I didn’t have lemon pudding…however, I did have vanilla, so I added some lemon extract 🤞 they came out amazing…I’d post a picture but I don’t see how on UA-cam
We appreciate that you shared what you did to make it with the vanilla pudding. We have great cooks watching our channel. Thank you so much for joining us at the table.
We have always made this in loaf pans. Most box stores, like Wal-Mart, will have loaf pans for sale and they aren't too expensive, and they are a nice investment in your kitchen. I do hope you get to try this bread. It's such a nice recipe. Thank you so much for watching our channel.
@@comesitatmytable9044 in the video Tom said you would come back, but the video stop. It was after he drizzled the lemon topping on and said you would be back after he had put all the lemon topping on.
I just went back and looked - oh my - you're right! I don't know what I've done to the ending. I've messed up somewhere along the line and I wish I could say it won't happen again, but with me, it probably will. I'm still very much a novice here! Thanks for letting me know. And I'm so sorry about the ending. Will you take my word for it that it was really good?😊

Does anyone else smile every time he rinses and puts things in the sink....gotta love a man who cleans as he goes😀
And he always says, "It's so good" lol.
Yes!

Try using a spice cake mix instead of vanilla
@@itsknotmagic yes, I have been told to do that too. Next time I will try the spice cake mix. 👍

Looks fantastic but I don’t understand how you can add that boiling water to those eggs and not have some form of scrambled eggs set up in the mix.

This is great! I am making this as soon as I get to the store!!
Best lemon bread ever ! I just made it. Oh my.. 😋
Super easy. YUMMY ❤️❤️😁😊😃👍🖐️👌

This lemon bread recipe looks so delicious 😋 Mr. Tom.
You know what it’s hard being left handed in a right handed world! I am left handed and it can be difficult at times. Enjoyed the video
Thank you for watching and we hope you get to enjoy the cookies soon!
Looks great. My question is, how come the eggs don't start to cook when you pour in the boiling water?
I always thought you had to temper the eggs with the hot liquid.
Like the T-shirt! I have family in Ensenada! I've also been there!
Tom please make a key lime pie or even a mango key lime pie--I am from south florida and miss that so much.
This looks delicious!!!
Is there a certain technique of adding the water so it doesn’t cook the eggs before I get it mixed? I am having a rough time baking lately so I want to make sure I have the process right and not ruin the cake.
My Mom made lemon loaf and even without the icing it's Delicious
Batter left on the beater won’t be wasted. Melissa will enjoy it. 🥰
Excellent point! And definitely true!
I made this today. Omgosh it’s soooo good!!! Does this freeze well with the glaze on it?
That bread looks delicious. I am wondering if that beater came with your mixer or if you bought it separately? It looks better than mine. I really enjoy your channel. Thank you.
Was it good? It looked delicious.

Oh, I want to thank y’all for the added pounds, trying all these recipes are making me have mega thighs !… lol… Hey, don’t forget to “ Put A Lid On It “…..
I would be inclined to add freeze dried lemon cubes (semolina reconstituted 1/2 way), I’ll bet that would be a lemon lovers paradise!!
A little dollop of whipped cream or Cool Whip would also be good!
This is one of my top few favorites. Yum, Now I don’t have to buy it. 😊 Thanks!

I would call this lemon loaf, not bread. It’s a desert❤
Would it do well to melt glaze in microwave?
Tom This Was Great But Ur Pans Must Be Way Smaller Than Mine Next Time I'm Only Going To Use 1 Pan Cuz Mine Did Raise Much I Use Olive Oil
Made this last night for my neighbor’s birthday. One for her and one for us! Lol! It’s really good and was easy to make.
Thank you for sharing it! We’re glad you like it.
@@comesitatmytable9044 , I got two small slices from the loaf we kept. I think Jen liked it. 🤣

What happened to the ending. Never got to see finished loaf out of the pan. More importantly, never got to see Tom taste the cake....😮
Blue berries in this would be like Mana from Heaven You can make a chocolate bread the same way
What happened to the end of the video?! It didn’t show you slicing it or showing how it looks.
Won’t the boiling water cook the eggs?
Could you have nuked the glaze for about 5 seconds to fully melt the butter?
What size were your pans?

Why didn't you come back as you said????
What size pans?
Can I use olive oil?
Olive oil has a taste so it would definitely alter the flavor of your bread. I would not recommend that substitution.
Can poppy seeds be added?
Can poppy seeds be added?
You never came back! Dude? 😢
What are you talking about? Sorry, I'm lost?!
What size are the bread pants
what if I told you I don't have loaf pans?
