🍋 Iced Lemon Loaf | Healthy Starbucks copycat | Vegan & Gluten-Free

We had a taste of summer weather here this week (20 degrees Celcius!! & shorts & t-shirt weather) and I was vibing lemon stuff. So we made a bunch of fun lemony stuff at our gf/df bakery and I really felt like making a healthier Starbucks Lemon Loaf dupe for us, complete with the creamy lemony glaze. Yum!



🍰 Lemon Loaf


  • Zest of 2 lemons (approx 2 tbsp) - treat as dry ingredient

  • 2 1/2 cups almond flour

  • 1/2 cup tapioca

  • 2 tbsp ground flax

  • 3/4 tsp baking soda

  • 1/2 tsp baking powder

  • 1/4 tsp salt


  • 1/2 cup lemon juice (you may need 2-3 medium lemons for this juice, plus the juice for the glaze)

  • 1/3 cup syrup

  • 1/4 cup milk of choice or water (I used cashew milk in the video)

  • 1 tsp vanilla

  • 1/3 cup coconut oil, melted


-Preheat your oven to 350F

-Line your loaf pan with parchment paper

-Combine your dry ingredients in a mixing bowl, treating the lemon zest as a dry, and mix well. This allows the lemon oil to be released, and absorbed by the dry ingredients for a deeper lemon flavour

-Combine your wet ingredients then add to the bowl of dry ingredients, and stir until combined

-Transfer to your lined loaf pan and bake for 45-55 minutes, until toothpick comes out clean

-Let cool completely then remove from pan


💛 Coconut Butter Lemon Glaze


  • 1/4c/64g coconut butter

  • 1tbsp coconut oil, melted

  • 1tbsp maple syrup

  • 2tbsp lemon juice

  • 2tbsp milk of choice


-Combine coconut butter, coconut oil and maple syrup in a microwave safe bowl and warm in the microwave.

-Stir in the lemon juice & milk

-Pour over your lemon loaf, and let harden (it takes about 20-30minutes)


-Slice & enjoy!!




(Alternatively, if you want a more “traditional” lemon glaze, you can use 1/2c powdered sugar, with 1 tbsp lemon juice to make a lemon glaze)
