A slice of sweet bread with a cup of tea or coffee is my prefect afternoon treat. Whether a friend is visiting or I’m taking a screen-break I cherish that afternoon quiet time before the kids are of the bus and the busy-ness of after school and dinner begins. When one of my best friends called to say she was coming over I wanted to make something quick, delicious and gluten-free. With a PC Gluten-free Yellow Loaf Cake Mix I had the basics for a perfect gluten free lemon poppyseed loaf. With just a few simple ingredients you can make a classic tea-time treat.
Gluten Free Lemon Poppyseed Loaf
Ingredients:
1 PC Gluten Free Yellow Loaf Cake Mix
Juice of 1 lemon (approx. 1/4 cup)
Zest of 1 lemon
1 tsp lemon extract

1 tbsp poppy seeds

Preheat oven to 350
In a stand mixer or large bowl add cake mix, lemon juice, lemon zest and lemon extract and mix until combined.
Then add in eggs, water, vegetable oil and poppy seeds and mix on medium speed for 2-3 minutes.
Line a loaf pan with parchment paper and bake for 55 minutes or until it is brown on the edges and an inserted toothpick comes out clean.
Allow loaf to cool.
Lemon Glaze

1 1/2 cups icing sugar (powdered sugar)
Juice of 1 lemon (for thicker glaze use only half the juice)

Oh my goodness, poppyseed loaves are my favorite. IT is awesome that there is a way to make it gluten-free. Thanks so much for sharing. I will be sure to keep this on hand for when my gluten-free friends come over.
Lemon-y goodness is what this sounds like to me! I really enjoy a good lemon recipe. I think this would pair well with one of my ice coffees next week. :)
We are a gluten free family and I have not heard of this brand. How have I not heard of this?! Oh my gosh this looks so delicious. It makes me so happy to see the more unusual flavors in gluten free now. I’ve missed things like Lemon Poppyseed cake!
I can’t wait to try this! It looks so delicious and not too heavy or overly sweet. Thank you for sharing!
That looks absolutely amazing! I’m saving this so that I can make it later. It looks so delicious. I love anything that’s lemon poppy seed. One of my favorite flavors!
Um, I want this right now! What a yummy treat! That glaze looks amazing!
