Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x5-inch loaf pan, tapping out any excess flour
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside
- In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, using a whisk or electric mixer
- Beat in the eggs, one at a time, until well combined. Stir in the sour cream or Greek yogurt until smooth
- Add the lemon zest, lemon juice, and dried lavender to the wet ingredients, mixing until evenly distributed
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix
- Gently fold in the cannabis-infused coconut oil until evenly distributed throughout the batter
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it out evenly
- Bake in the preheated oven for 45 to 50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean
- Remove the loaf from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely
- While the loaf is cooling, prepare the glaze by whisking together the powdered sugar and lemon juice until smooth. Adjust the consistency by adding more or less lemon juice as needed
- Once the loaf has cooled, drizzle the glaze over the top and sprinkle with additional dried lavender for garnish if desired
- Slice and serve the Lemon Lavender Loaf with a Cannabis Surprise, and enjoy the delightful combination of citrus and herbal flavors
