I give it 3.5 stars. Quick and easy. Light. Reduced poppy seeds and increased lemon zest based upon reading other reviews. I should have added even more zest! I cut recipe in half, made just one loaf...that worked well. Overall, it could have been a bit more moist for my taste, but pretty good.

Even though I increased the lemon juice and lemon zest, it wasn't lemony enough.

Really nice moist loaf - needs a little more lemon flavour for my taste - doubling the lemon zest will do the trick.

Maybe it was my baking soda, but this didn't rise like I had hoped. Also, Verrrry poppy-seedy, which might have accounted for the heaviness. I added a lemon glaze, as I agreed with a previous reviewer that it could have had a more lemony flavor.

This is a nice lemony cake, great fresh out of the oven or even two weeks later! I was looking for a lemon poppy seed loaf recipe after getting a free sample at William Sonoma. I thought for sure I could find a recipe as good as theirs and make my own for much cheaper. This is the recipe! It was very simple to make and turned out well. I added more lemon zest because I like it. Way to go Irene, this recipe is a winner!!

This is wonderful. Everyone loves it. Anytime there is a gathering at work I am asked to bring it. It's the best lemon poppy bread I have ever eaten.

This is delicious! Very nice lemon flavor. I cut the butter down to a 1/2 Cup and increased the yogurt to 1 Cup, and it still came out moist. I've been looking for a good lemon poppy recipe, and this does it for me!

I halved this recipe and made it into 11 muffins instead of one loaf. They tasted so good! I tend to stick with the popular recipes, so it was a pleasant surprise that a recipe that didn't have a zillion reviews still turned out to be so yummy and worthwhile making. :-))

I ususally avoid recipes that involve creaming butter and sugar together, as too time consuming. But this one really wasn't. Once you've done the creaming the rest of the recipe is very quick and easy. The loaves didn't rise as much as I thought it would but it was delicious. A delicate lemon flavour, and lots of poppy seeds.
