So, I’m not sure if you saw my earlier sourdough discard cinnamon quick bread recipe, but I loved the base recipe so much that I thought I’d play around with it and see what else I could do. And here is what I came up with this week: Sourdough Discard Lemon Bread.

As with my cinnamon bread, my poppy seed bread is a fantastic way to include sourdough discard. I always have too much discard. As a result, a recipe that uses an entire cup is super useful to me.

Light, Sweet, and Summery

Know what’s even better than using up all my discard in one quick recipe? The flavor. My goodness – I just love the lemon flavor mixed with the sourdough tang. My sourdough discard lemon bread tastes like summer, especially when covered in glaze. Oddly enough, my husband thinks the bread tastes like Fruit Loops cereal. I happen to enjoy that brand of cereal, so I still consider the comparison a compliment.

I’m pretty proud of this recipe, so take a few minutes to go check it out on my blog BreadbytheHour.com. You’ll find my latest sourdough discard lemon bread, as well as all the other bread recipes I’ve made over the years.

If you tried my recipe, don’t forget to let me know in the comment section or by leaving a star rating. Whenever someone leaves a rating or review, that recipe ranks better in online searches so even more people can see my posts and enjoy it.

Also, if you have suggestions for making this recipe even better, you can tell me about them in the comments. Or, you can send me a message through my contact me page. Your feedback helps me a great deal because I’m still learning how to make good bread.
