This gluten free lemon poppyseed bread tastes like spring. It’s bright, fresh, and has the most amazing lemon glaze.
Gluten Free Lemon Poppyseed Bread
You guys, I have been absolutely craving lemons lately. These cold, dreary winter days have me longing for warmer weather and spring flavors. And for me, you just can’t get any more “spring” than lemons. So – gluten free lemon poppyseed bread it is!
This bread is so good. Full of fresh lemon juice, lemon zest, and fun little poppy seeds that have no real purpose in life.
Also, poppy seed or poppyseed? I see it all over the internet written as both. Even Food Network has poppyseed and poppy seed recipes. I even Googled “is it poppy seed or poppyseed?”. Seriously.
I went with poppyseed, fwiw.
I shared this gluten free lemon poppyseed bread recipe on Food Fanatic back in the summer. Oh summer, how I miss you so…
I figured now is a great time to share it with you since I’m sure many of your are looking forward to spring as much as I am. Enjoy!

Well, I'm the first to leave a reply for 2020. I'm making this today. It has the right amount of everything. Can't wait to taste it.

This is my first time at your site and I just made this lemon-poppy loaf (literally finishing up my slice right now). It is absolutely delicious! Moist, light, flavorful, just the perfect bit of chew. I can't even tell that it's gluten-free! The only thing I substituted was the sugar with monk-fruit sugar. This is my favorite lemon-poppy seed bread I've had. Thank you for the recipe.
I also like that your writing style makes it so the recipe is neat, orderly, easy to follow so that I'm not going all over the place. Also, much appreciated to not have too many ads that clogs my laptop like many other sites. Major double-thumbs up.

Could I substitute applesauce for the eggs? I can’t have eggs.

Hi Nasreen, I haven't tried this with an egg substitute. If you do try it with applesauce, let me know how it turns out!
