Can I make this loaf without the lemon extract?

Yes, the recipe lists lemon extract as optional. The zest and juice of two lemons, along with lemon peel powder, will still provide plenty of citrus flavor.

What kind of vegan milk should I use?

The recipe calls for 1 cup of vegan milk. Any unsweetened plant-based milk, such as almond, soy, or oat milk, would work well in this loaf.

How do I know when the loaf is fully baked?

After baking for 30-35 minutes, insert a toothpick or knife into the center of the loaf. It should come out clean when fully cooked.

Can I substitute the agave?

The recipe uses 1/2 cup agave. While not specified, maple syrup could be a suitable liquid sweetener substitute, though it might alter the flavor slightly.

How should I store leftover lemon poppyseed loaf?

Once cooled, store the loaf in an airtight container at room temperature for a few days, or in the refrigerator to extend its freshness. It can also be frozen for longer storage.
