Recipe Card
For the Lemon Poppy Seed Loaf
ingredients
- 1 3/4 cups unsweetened, warm almond milk
- 1 cup refined coconut oil, melted
- 2 lemons, zested (2 tablespoons) and juiced (1/4 cup)
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 cup cane sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 3 cups all purpose flour
- 1/4 cup poppy seeds
For the Glaze
ingredients
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1-2 tablespoons lemon juice
Method
Step 1
Preheat oven to 350ºF. Grease a 9x5" loaf pan with coconut oil and lightly flour; set aside.
Step 2
In a large bowl whisk together warm almond milk, melted coconut oil, vanilla extract, lemon juice and lemon zest. Whisk in sugar, then mix in baking powder and salt. Gradually add flour, 1 cup at a time, whisking in between each addition. Once batter is smooth add the poppy seeds and mix well to distribute evenly.
Step 3
Pour batter evenly into prepared pan, using a spatula to smooth. Bake for 45-50 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool in the pan at least 10 minutes.
Step 4
Make the glaze: whisk powdered sugar and lemon juice until smooth. Add lemon juice as needed to reach desired consistency. Pour evenly over the loaf. Allow to set for 15-20 minutes, then slice!
