Lemon Loaf (Starbucks Copycat)

December 7, 2016 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 6 Comments

Hi Everyone,

My Mom sent me a recipe this past weekend for Starbucks Lemon Loaf.  Have you ever had Starbucks Lemon Loaf?  It is pretty good.  I don’t usually order it when I go there, I try to stay away from the sweets.  However, it is my Husbands favorite.  When I told him my Mom sent me the recipe, he offered to buy the ingredients so I could make it.  How could I refuse?  So today I have for you a Starbucks Copycat recipe, Lemon Loaf.

Lemon Loaf (Starbucks Copycat)

I have to admit, this turned out pretty good.  The loaf is moist, sweet and has an amazing lemon flavor.  It’s topped with a sweet lemon glaze.  The glaze is so good, I could drink it with a spoon.  I have to say I am pretty impressed.  Not only does it taste good, it is half the calories of the Starbucks loaf.  You can’t beat that!!!

The recipe makes one standard size loaf or 3 mini loaves.  I made 3 mini loaves, so my Husband could have one to take to work, one for me to take to work and one for us to munch on at home.  I love making mini loaves.  It’s a great way to make one batch and share with friends and family.

What’s nice is that this recipe is made with Greek yogurt, so you get an extra punch of protein.  For the lemons I used Meyer Lemons.  I was so excited when I saw them at Trader Joe’s.  Meyer Lemons are sweet with that pinch of sourness.  They are simply the perfect citrus fruit this time of year.  However, you know I love my oranges too.

I am so excited to finally have this recipe.  This is truly a great recipe and I am surprised how moist it is.  The topping of the loaf seemed a little hard to the touch, so I was unsure how the loaf would taste.  But it was really moist and the lemon glaze over the top really softened up the topping of the loaf.  I am just so tickled to be able to take a loaf to work with me.  I think people will be pleasantly surprised.

I hope you all have a great day!  Half way through the week!  I’m on the Christmas countdown.  When Christmas comes, my work is closed for almost 2 weeks!  Woohoo!

By the way, I am unsure where my Mom got this recipe, but glad she did.  Thanks Mom!

Toodles,

Jennifer

I want to give my apologies to the folks in the Philadelphia area. I seemed to have brought the California rain with me when I was there Thursday-Saturday. 😂 Hopefully you got some sun after I left.

This is a view if my livingroom. I really like how I styled my console table. The bunny sign and egg tree are from my friends @12timbers. I’ll be sad when Easter is over.

Have a wonderful day!

Happy Tuesday!! Another dreary day at the Bay! I k Happy Tuesday!! Another dreary day at the Bay! I know I complain about the weather a lot, but this seriously blows my mind in how crappy it is here. I need to get into the garden. It’s my happy place.

Today I am sharing with you a spring vignette that I created. I just love tulips this time of year. Though, they seem to be out all year at Trader Joe’s, which is kind of strange. I can’t wait until they get peonies and lilacs. My two favorites.
🐰
The candles are from my friends @goldhillcandleco. They are hand poured, 100% soy and have a wooden wick. They smell so fresh and clean. These two candles are from the March subscription box. I highly recommend.

Happy first day of Spring! Though you wouldn’t k Happy first day of Spring! Though you wouldn’t know it in California. We are still getting rain and it’s in the mid 50’s. We should be in the 70’s by now. I wonder what the summer temps will be like this year?
🌺
Even though it may not feel like Spring,  there is no reason why we can’t start prepping for it. It’s going to be time soon to plant flowers, add a floral wreath to the front door and of course a welcome mat to invite everyone to your home. 
🌺
I wanted to share with you my new welcome mat that I got from @cocomatsnmore. They just had their Spring release and oh my gosh so many cute ones. I love there welcome mats. They are thick, bright colors and fast shipping. I absolutely love the flowers and the saying “Live Life in Full Bloom”. It’s so very true.
🌺
What are you most looking forward to this Spring?

I did have a very hard time taking my sink tray off the counter. I’ve had the tray there for years, so I thought I would change it up. Don’t be surprised if the sink tray makes its way back. 😂 I may add some herbs to my window sill for some fresh green color.

My husband and I are not fancy when it comes to eating dinner. Since it’s just the two of us, we never use the dining room table, but always eat at the kitchen counter.
🥕
There is no reason why we can’t eat fancy at the kitchen counter. I am using my new placemats that I got from @vmathome. They are thick, water, stain resistant and can handle heat up to 350F degrees. I love the color and style of the placemats. They have a wide variety of styles and colors, along with matching table runners.
🥕
I styled my table with bright spring colors that I was inspired by carrots. I still have bunnies on the brain. lol I had fun with this place setting, it’s so nice to have dinner with a little style then having it on a plain plate and paper napkins.
🥕
Have a wonderful weekend!!

I’m sharing with you my media table all decked out for Easter. I just love decorating for spring and Easter. Something about pulling out the bunnies that makes me smile.

🐰
The Jute Tree with the Eggs and the Wooden Bunnies are also from 12 Timbers. The Jute Tree is so much fun to add to your decor. I love the colors of the felt eggs.

So much fun to add anywhere in your home.

Happy March 1st! Everyday is a day closer to Sprin Happy March 1st! Everyday is a day closer to Spring. I looked back last year at this time and my garden was starting to flourish. Boy you should see it now. It’s a big muddy mess. With all the rain and high winds we sure have a huge mess to clean. I can’t wait until we get some warm days. 
🐰
I’m sharing with you one of my favorite vignettes that I created last year. I may have a slight obsession with bunnies. Every year I say no more buying bunnies, but then I end up with a few more in my collection. Lol
🐰
Have a beautiful day!
