Mojito Loaf Cake
Ingredients
Cake:
3/4 cup white sugar
2 limes, zested
1 tablespoon minced fresh mint
3 tablespoons fresh lime juice
2 tablespoons rum
1 cup plain yogurt
3/4 cup grapeseed oil
2 eggs
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
3 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
Mojito Glaze:
1 cup powdered sugar
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
4 large mint leaves, torn
2 tablespoons rum
Directions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a loaf pan or line with parchment paper.
Combine sugar, lime zest, and mint in a medium bowl. Rub together with your fingers until moist and fragrant. Add lime juice and rum; whisk until dissolved. Whisk in yogurt, oil, and eggs.
Stir flour, baking powder, and salt together in a large bowl. Slowly add the wet ingredients, mixing until smooth. Pour batter into the prepared pan.
Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 50 minutes. Tent loaf with foil if it starts browning too quickly.
Cool in the pan for 5 to 10 minutes before inverting onto a cooling rack set over a baking sheet.
Prepare the glaze while the loaf is cooling. Whisk powdered sugar, lime juice, and mint leaves in a small saucepan. Cook and stir over low heat until glaze is smooth and mint has wilted, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in rum until completely combined.
Strain glaze into a measuring cup with a spout, pressing against the mint leaves to extract as much flavor as possible. Let sit until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes.
Pour the glaze over the cooling cake, letting excess drip down the sides. Let loaf cool and glaze firm up before slicing.
