Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups whole wheat flour
- 1.5 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup unsweetened applesauce
- 2 large eggs
- 0.5 cup fresh lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon lemon zest
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 0.5 cup natural granulated sweetener (such as stevia or monk fruit)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a medium-sized bowl, mix together the whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
In a separate large bowl, whisk the unsweetened applesauce and natural granulated sweetener until well combined.
Add the eggs one at a time to the applesauce mixture, whisking thoroughly after each addition.
Stir in the lemon juice, lemon zest, and vanilla extract until evenly mixed.
Mix in the plain Greek yogurt until the mixture is smooth.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Once baked, allow the lemon bread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
