Made with wholesome ingredients like Greek yogurt, avocado oil, and fresh lemons, this loaf strikes the perfect balance between indulgence and nourishment. And let’s be real—who can resist that dreamy lemon glaze drizzled over the top?

What You’ll Need:

Dry Ingredients:

• 1½ cups organic unbleached all-purpose flour
• 2 tsp baking powder
• 2 tsp Eversio Wellness 3 Mushroom Blend
• ½ tsp salt

Wet Ingredients:

• 2 eggs, at room temperature
• ¾ cup cane sugar or date sugar
• 1 cup plain Greek yogurt, at room temperature
• ½ cup avocado oil or olive oil
• Zest of two large lemons
• ½ cup fresh-squeezed lemon juice
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 2–3 tbsp poppy seeds

For the Lemon Glaze:

• 1 cup monk fruit sweetener or icing sugar
• 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
• 2 tbsp milk (dairy or plant-based)

DIRECTIONS

Prep the Pan & Oven

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a loaf pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal later.

Mix the Dry Ingredients

Whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl. Set aside.

Whisk the Wet Ingredients

In a large mixing bowl, crack in your eggs and add the sugar. Whisk vigorously until the mixture becomes pale and frothy. Then, stir in the Greek yogurt, oil, vanilla, lemon juice, and lemon zest. Your kitchen will already start smelling amazing!

Combine & Fold

Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and gently fold the mixture until just combined—don’t overmix! Finally, fold in the poppy seeds for that delightful crunch and visual charm.

Bake

Pour the batter into your prepared loaf pan and smooth the top. Bake for 40–45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Make the Glaze

Whip up your glaze while the loaf is baking by combining icing sugar, lemon juice, and milk. Whisk until smooth, adding more milk as needed for a pourable consistency.

Cool & Glaze

Once the loaf is baked, let it cool in the pan for 15 minutes. Then, lift it out and place it on a wire rack. Drizzle the glaze generously over the top. Let it set, slice, and enjoy every sunshiny bite!

A Slice of Sunshine 🍋

This Lemon Poppy Seed Loaf is the perfect reminder that sometimes, the simplest bakes are the most satisfying. Whether you're sharing it with loved ones or keeping it all to yourself (we won’t tell), this treat will brighten your day.

Let me know if you try it—I’d love to hear how it turns out! 💛
