To make this Lemon Poppy Seed Bread, you will need the following ingredients per serving:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon lemon zest
- 1 tablespoon poppy seeds
To start, preheat your oven to 350°F and grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In a separate large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg, then stir in the Greek yogurt, lemon juice, and lemon zest. Gradually mix in the dry ingredients until just combined, then fold in the poppy seeds.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
This Lemon Poppy Seed Bread is a perfect combination of sweet and tangy flavors, with a moist and tender crumb. The poppy seeds add a delightful crunch to every bite, making it a perfect dessert or snack for any time of day.
