Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups All-Purpose Gluten Free Flour
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons Xanthan Gum Omit if your flour blend already contains it
  • 2 teaspoons Baking Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon Fine Sea Salt
  • 2 tablespoons Poppy Seeds
  • 1 cup Granulated Sugar
  • Lemon Zest From 1 lemon
  • 1 cup Coconut Milk From a carton
  • 2 Egg
  • 1/3 cup Vegetable Oil
  • 1/4 cup Lemon Juice
  • 1 teaspoon Pure Vanilla Extract
  • 3/4 cup Powdered Sugar
  • 2 teaspoons Lemon Juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon Pure Vanilla Extract
  • Water Optional, to reach desired thickness

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350°F and spray a 9x5 inch loaf pan with non-stick spray.
  • In a large bowl, sift and whisk together the flour, xanthan gum, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Whisk in the poppyseeds, sugar and lemon zest.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, vegetable oil, lemon juice and vanilla. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until completely combined.
  • Transfer the batter to the prepared baking pan and bake for 55 minutes to 1 hour or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  • When the bread is done, cool in the pan for 10 minutes than remove it from the pan and cool completely on a wire rack.
  • To make the glaze, stir together the powdered sugar, lemon juice and vanilla extract. If the glaze is too thick, stir in some water ¼ tsp at a time until it reaches your desired thickness. Pour the glaze over the top of the completely cooled bread and let it set, about 5-10 minutes before serving.
