Ingredients
  

1 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 cup almond flour

1/4 cup chia seeds

1/4 cup poppy seeds

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup granulated sugar

1/4 cup light brown sugar

1/2 cup vegetable oil or melted coconut oil

2 large eggs

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 cup Greek yogurt

Zest of 2 large lemons

1/4 cup fresh lemon juice

1/4 cup milk (you can use non-dairy milk if preferred)

Instructions
 

Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease or line a mini loaf pan with parchment paper.

    Combine Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, almond flour, chia seeds, poppy seeds, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.

      Mix Sugars and Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, brown sugar, and oil until well blended. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract, Greek yogurt, lemon zest, and fresh lemon juice until the mixture is smooth.

        Mix Wet and Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, folding gently to combine. Add the milk gradually, mixing until just incorporated. Be careful not to overmix the batter.

          Fill the Pan: Pour the batter into the prepared mini loaf pan, filling each section about two-thirds full.

            Bake: Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

              Cool the Loaves: Once baked, remove from the oven and let the mini loaves cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, turn them out onto a wire rack to cool completely.

                Serve: Enjoy your refreshing Lemon Poppy Chia Mini Loaves as a delightful snack or breakfast treat! Optionally, drizzle with a light lemon glaze or enjoy them plain for a zesty bite.
