It’s getting cooler out and with the cooler weather comes more baking. My mom made lemon loaf all the time when I was growing up and it was one of my favorites. I modified the recipe so that it’s now vegan and gluten-free. The addition blueberries completes it.
Cream together the vegan butter and whatever sugar substitute you like to use with baking. It doesn’t work with maple syrup. Make sure it’s completely combined.
After it’s all mixed together, let it sit for 10 minutes. I find this is something necessary for all gluten free baking.
