I've always loved the lemon poppyseed combo. My favorite muffin from a local grocery store was always lemon poppyseed with a lemon glaze in the middle. I haven't had one for years, but this bread definitely remind me of them.

Baking doesn't get much easier than this 6 ingredient recipe. Cake mix and instant pudding are the shortcut ingredients that makes this semi homemade bread so special.

It's soft, super flavorful and always a favorite at our house. We've also tried chocolate cake and pudding and also pistachio pudding and white cake mix. We skipped the poppy seeds in those and they turned out just as wonderful as this version.

This makes a great gift for a friend or family member who's under the weather or just to show them how much you appreciate them! 

If you're looking for another lemony sweet treat, give these amazing lemon madeleines a try! Madeleines are a favorite of mine, and so worth the investment of a madeleine pan. Check your local thrift store. That's where I found mine.
