This Lemon Poppyseed Loaf Is Perfect For Summer
It’s the end of May and I can’t be the only one that feels like Summer can’t come fast enough! We have been having some crazy weather here in Southern Alberta (hot one day, then raining and snowing the next), and I a ready for the summer heat to arrive and stay. I’m really looking forward to being able to sit outside in the backyard and read books while drinking sangria. This lemon poppyseed loaf has me dreaming of the summer! It has the perfect amount of citrus flavour and is light and fluffy. If you’re not a fan of lemons, you can switch them out for your favourite citrus…

Country Harvest Whole Wheat Bread With Honey
I love a good loaf of bread. There’s nothing better than bread right out of the oven with lots of butter, it’s heaven. This recipe came from me getting angry at the cost of bread, actually at the cost of terrible bread. We used to buy this whole wheat bread that had lots of different seeds in it and every time we went to buy it the price went up, and not by small amounts. Needless to say, after this happened the third time I said screw it, I’m sure I can make this bread for under $5. This bread came pretty quickly and easily, the testing phase for this…

Lemon Poppyseed Loaf
When I was on my lemon kick a couple of weeks ago I made this lemon poppyseed loaf. I always try to mix the sugar and lemon zest together to give it a more lemon flavour and this time it didn’t disappoint! If you’re not a fan of lemons you can use any citrus fruit and it would be amazing! This loaf is packed with lemon flavour and because of the yogurt, it is unbelievably moist. If you don’t have yogurt you can use sour cream or even mayonnaise, one of my favourite chocolate cake recipes uses mayo, which will make the loaf moist as well. I hope that you…

Country Harvest Bread
This recipe came around when I got irritated for paying $3 for a loaf of bread that wasn’t very good. Both Kevin and I eat quite a bit of bread, we were sometimes going through 2 or 3 loaves a week. Which can add up and again that didn’t taste good. Don’t get me wrong I don’t mind spending money on good bread, but the Country Harvest Bread we were buying was mediocre at best. This recipe took some time, trying different amounts of ingredients and time to get it just right. If you enjoy bread as much as we do I’m sure you will enjoy this one. INGREDIENTS 3…

Grapefruit Poppyseed Loaf
This week I wanted to make a loaf of some kind but I wasn’t sure what. I went down a rabbit hole on multiple websites, some I had heard of others I hadn’t, and came across a Grapefruit Poppyseed Loaf. I love grapefruit! It is one of my favorite citrus fruits! I found this recipe on Bon Appetit from 2016 and knew I had to try it. If grapefruit is not your thing, you can substitute it for lemon or orange, either would work well for this loaf. I hope you enjoy this as much as I did! INGREDIENTS 1½ cups all-purpose flour 2 teaspoons baking powder 1/2 teaspoon kosher…
