Sweet Citrus Perfection 🍋

Ingredients:

Loaf:

• 1 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
• 2 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 2 eggs
• 3/4 cup granulated sugar
• 3/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
• 1/2 cup Wild Groves Meyer Lemon Olive Oil
• Zest of half a lemon
• 2 tbsp lemon juice
• 3 tbsp poppy seeds

Lemon Glaze:

• 1 cup powdered sugar
• 1 tbsp lemon juice
• 1 tbsp Wild Groves Meyer Lemon Olive Oil

Directions:

1. Preheat the oven to 350 °F and set the rack in the middle of the oven. 
2. Lightly grease a 9" x 5" loaf pan with olive oil and line with parchment paper (leave a bit of overhang on the side to help release the loaf from the pan after baking).
3. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and poppyseeds. 
4. In a large bowl, add eggs and sugar and whisk vigorously for about 1 minute (until light and frothy). Add the Greek yogurt, Wild Groves Meyer Lemon Olive Oil, lemon juice and lemon zest. Mix until combined. 
5. Fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients with a rubber spatula until combined (do not over mix).
6. Pour batter into your prepared pan and bake for 35-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center, comes out mostly clean.
7. In a small bowl, whisk together the ingredients for the glaze.
8. Once fully baked, remove from oven and let cool for 15 minutes.
9. Run a knife along the edges of the pan and gently lift the loaf out of the pan onto a cooling rack to finish cooling. 
10. Once completely cooled, drizzle or drench with the glaze!
