Lemon Poppy Seed Loaf With Glaze
During this pregnancy, I craved the lemon loaf from Starbucks and finally created my own gluten-free and grain-free almond flour version. I'm completely obsessed! This poppy seed lemon loaf is perfect for getting started on our spring baking. The delicious lemon glaze adds the perfect finishing touch.
Prep time: 5 minutes
Cooking time: 40-45 minutes
Total time: 50 minutes
Servings: 8-10 slices
Notes: Gluten Free, Grain Free, can be made Sugar Free.
Ingredients
2 cups almond flour
1/3 cup granulated sweetener (Lakanto and coconut sugar work great too!)
1 tbsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
2/3 cup plain Greek yogurt (or coconut cream)
1 tbsp lemon zest
1/4 cup lemon juice
2 tsp poppy seeds
3 large eggs
Lemon Glaze
5-6 tbsp powdered sugar
1/2 lemon juiced
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease a 9”x5” loaf pan or line it with parchment paper. Set aside.
In a large bowl, whisk together wet ingredients then add the dry. Stir until the batter is smooth and well combined.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it evenly. Bake for 40-45 minutes or until the edges have very slightly browned.
While that’s baking, whisk the powdered sugar and lemon juice in a small bowl until smooth.
Allow the loaf to cool completely before removing it from the pan. Slice and drizzle with the glaze just before serving.
Shrimp Hibachi Bowl
Homemade hibachi bowls are my new favorite way to enjoy making dinners more elevated at home! Benihana was a favorite restaurant of mine growing up, and this feels just like eating there (but better, in my opinion!)
