Skinny Lemony Poppy Seed Bread

If you ask me to describe this bread I would probably say "light and lemony". So please try it and let me know how YOU would describe it!!! 

 Ingredients:

1 ¼ cup all purpose flour

¾ cup sugar

½ cup oat bran

1 tabs poppy seeds

2 tsp baking powder

½ tsp salt

1 cup low fat milk

¼ cup unsweetened apple sauce (Or ¼ cup melted butter)

1 egg

2 tabs fresh lemon jus

2 tsp grated lemon zest

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 350degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray an 8x4 inch pan with non-stick cooking spray.

In a large bowl, mix together the dry ingredients: flour, sugar, oat bran, poppy seeds, baking powder and salt.

In another bowl mix together milk, butter, egg, lemon zest and jus.

Fold the wet ingredients into the flour mixture and pour batter into prepared 8x4 inch pan.

Bake in the preheated oven for 40 to 45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean. Allow to cool 10 minutes before removing it from the pan.

Transfer the loaf to a rack and let cool completely.

Cover the loaf with plastic wrap and store at room temperature or in refrigerator.

Enjoy!!
