I remember having one of these starters about 10 years ago. I also remember that lemon was our favorite. Well, now that I have another starter, I think lemon still is the favorite around here. I've tried several lemon versions and they all just rock.
There is just something classic about lemon poppy seed. I wanted to make these into muffins but the kids were using the muffin pan for something else. It worked great in the loaf pan and everyone loved it!
Check out my other Amish bread creations!
