My mom’s poppy seed bread was always a favorite of mine growing up. Her recipe always made two loaves- one to give away and one to keep. It is the perfect weekend treat! This weekend, I took on the challenge of making it gluten and dairy free… and succeeded. It has great texture as well as taste. This recipe makes one loaf.
