LEMON BREAD

Very lemony, very tasty, and so easy to make, this is a moist bread with a pound cake texture that you can serve warm or cold. The recipe uses coconut butter, which gives it an unusually rich flavor and mellow sweetness. Check out the luscious variations below: Lemon Ginger Bread with Basil and Lemon Poppyseed Bread. Try this bread plain or with Blueberry Chia Jam (page 244).
