This Lemon Poppy Seed Bread with Drizzle is lightweight, creamy, and flavorful with lemon. Excellent for the summertime and as a handmade present for someone unique!
I did want to make that clear. Lemon dishes have never appealed to me. Ever. You name it: cupcakes, pizzas, biscuits. Lemon did not appeal to me.
Only joking (although these are insanely tasty)! I prepared these as Mini Lemon Poppy Seed Loaves for Family’s Day as a small surprise for the hubster’s mom, my parent, and step-mother.
I knew my step-mom enjoyed citrus and reasoned that everyone else (except me) would as well, so why not make something that both the mothers and I would enjoy?
As a result, here are these tasty bite-sized little loaves of lemon deliciousness!
I am a sucker for meals in miniature. There is simply something about little cupcakes that makes me want to take photographs of them all day! And now you are thinking, yeah, you are odd!
These tiny leaves have a strong lemon taste that is not overbearing for people who do not like citrus. They are also ideal as a homemade present for that particular someone.
This Lemon Poppy Seed Bread with Glaze is lightweight, delicious, and flavorful with lemon. Excellent for the summertime and as a homemade present for someone particular!

To make this lemon poppy seed bread with glaze, you will need the following ingredients:

How to Make Glazed Lemon Poppy Seed Bread
To begin, combine all of the dry ingredients in a mixing bowl. So combine the flour, bicarbonate of soda, hydrogen peroxide, salt, poppy seeds, and lemon zest in a mixing dish.
In a separate container, beat together the butter and sugar until creamy. Then stir in the yolks, vanilla extract, buttermilk, and lemon juice.
Stir the wet and dry ingredients together until barely mixed. Pour the mixture into the buttered loaf pan (or chip tray), bake until the sides are nicely browned, and set aside to cool.
Make the varnish while the slices of bread cool. Then, combine one or two lemons’ juice and icing sugar.
These Mini Lemon Poppy Seed Loaves were light, moist, and delectable! I knew the mums would like their little attractiveness and the light lemon taste.
So, on Family’s Day, I packaged the loaves in elegant bubble wrappers and presented them.
And guess what else? They were a huge success! Again, the parents loved the lemon taste, encased in a soft and fluffy tiny loaf.
