Lemon Poppy Seed Loaf

Lemon Poppy Seed Loaf

This glazed lemon poppy seed loaf is the perfect quick & easy spring bake! It requires just one bowl & a whisk and one hour of bake time. With the addition of both the juice and zest of 3 three lemons, this loaf does not skimp on the lemon flavor. The poppy seeds studded throughout the tender crumb, and the sweet, lemony glaze really set this loaf over the top!
