With poppy seeds and a yogurt glaze. When it comes to baking with citrus, I often think lemon first. I need to remind myself that oranges are also absolutely perfect for baking up. I added extra poppyseeds because what's a lemon loaf without poppyseeds? Four days later it was still as moist as it was on the day I made it.
