Sugar Free Lemon Loaf {Gluten Free}

Lemon loaf lovers – where you at?! How about sugar free lemon loaf lovers – where are you at?! We all love our treats, but when we make them as guilt free as possible, it’s a good feeling, my friend!!

So, how exactly did I make it sugar free? I used pure monk fruit extract from Lakanto! They have one that blends together monk fruit and erythritol, which you can find at the store easily, but I wanted to try and steer clear from sugar alcohols.

Even though that type of monk fruit extract is pricer, you use less, as you’ll see in this recipe!

This is a perfect Easter/Spring recipe to serve to your family!

If you’re wanting to add a little bit of sugar to this lemon loaf, adding a sugar glaze topping is AHMAZING (as seen here in the picture)!!! All I did was mix 1 cup of organic powdered sugar with 2-3 Tbsp of cashew milk (or almond or oat milk, whatever tickles your fancy!).
