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)
