Instructions

  1. Preheat to 350°F and line a loaf pan.
  2. Rub the sugar and zest together. Whisk in the butter, eggs, yogurt, and lemon juice.
  3. Fold in the flour, baking powder, salt, and poppy seeds.
  4. Bake 45–55 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean.

  6. Cool completely, then drizzle with the glaze.

Baker's tip

Zest the lemons before juicing; it's far easier.
