For the lemon loaf:
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 cup avocado oil
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 teaspoons lemon zest (2–3 large lemons)
- 1/4 cup lemon juice
Icing:
- 3/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1–2 tablespoons lemon juice
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees and line a 9×5 loaf pan lined with parchment paper for easy removal.
- In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Stir in the almond milk, oil, and vanilla until just combined. Then, quickly mix in the lemon juice and zest.
- Pour the batter into the loaf pan and bake for 45-55 minutes. It’s ready when the edges are golden and a skewer inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Let the loaf cool in the pan for 20 minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack. While it cools, mix the lemon glaze and drizzle it over the cooled loaf.
