Gluten Free Lemon Poppyseed Bread

I love a good lemon poppyseed bread and decided it was high time I turned my favorite recipe into a gluten free one.  It is also sugar free and dairy free.

Ingredients:

• 3 large eggs
• 1/4 c. coconut milk
• 1-1/2 c. gluten free flour blend(freshly ground is best)
• 1 tsp lemon flavored stevia
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 tsp guar gum
• 1 Tb grated lemon zest
• 3 Tb poppy seeds
• 3/4 c. coconut oil

Lemon Glaze

• 1/4 c. lemon juice(freshly squeezed)
• 2 tsp powdered pure stevia

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Mix together all the dry ingredients including the lemon zest and poppy seeds.

In a separate bowl mix together the coconut oil, coconut milk, eggs, and lemon stevia.

Mix together the eggs, lemon stevia, coconut oil, and coconut milk.

Slowly mix 1/2 of the wet mixture into the dry ingredients.  Next add another 1/2 and then the final 1/2 stirring really well after each addition.

Pour into a greased bread pan.

Pour the bread mix into the bread pan and bake at 350.

Bake at 350 degrees for 30-40 minutes.

Remove from oven and let cool in pan.

Fresh from the oven and looking delicious.

Make glaze and pour over still warm bread.

All glazed and ready to enjoy!

I find it is helpful to use a bread pan that has a lid so that I don’t have to take the bread out of the pan and can just put the lid on to seal in the moisture.
