Let’s start with our delicious Bread:

  1. In a bowl mix together:

    1 1/2 cup (215 g) All-Purpose Flour

    1 tsp Baking Powder

    1/4 tsp Salt

    1 1/2 tbsp Poppy Seeds

  2. Zest 1 Lemon. You should get about 3 tbsp of Lemon Zest.

  3. Mix Lemon Zest with 1/2 cup (100 g) Sugar.

    You can add up to 1 cup (250 g) Sugar for a sweeter taste. My Bread ended up tasting not sweet at all.

  4. Juice the same Lemon. You need to get 1/4 cup (60 ml) of Lemon Juice.

Let’s make Frosting while our Poppy Seed Lemon Bread is cooling down.

10. Mix 1 cup (100 g) Powdered Sugar & 1-2 tbsp Lemon Juice. You gotta work fast when topping the Bread with frosting as it hardens quickly. If you want to decorate your bread with lemon slices or fresh herbs, try to do it before frosting sets, or it will be impossible to attach your decorations.

11. Enjoy!
