Ingredients

This is a gluten-free and dairy-free version of lemon loaf cake. The photo labels have been simplified for clarity.
We use Kroger plant-based sour cream for this recipe. We find that it has the best consistency for baking.
I prefer Costabile lemon olive oil for its quality, purity, and flavor. Use Code: 15GOLDENGK on Amazon for 15% off!

Variations
- Traditional: You can use all-purpose flour and dairy-based ingredients in the same quantities for a traditional version, the way we did for this recipe for lemon pound cake.
- Add Berries: Toss any of your favorite berries in flour and fold them into the batter for a lemon berry loaf cake like this gluten free lemon blueberry loaf.
- Add Nuts: Fold chopped walnuts or pecans into the batter for more flavor and crunch.
- Add Poppy Seeds: Fold in poppy seeds to create a delicious lemon poppy seed cake.
- Naked: You can skip the frosting completely if you like. It's still absolutely delicious!
