You can’t go wrong with the combo of passion fruit and poppy seeds—it really takes the cake! This loaf is just as tasty for breakfast as it is for dessert (or anytime you crave a treat!). We’ve been meaning to add this beauty to our recipe collection for a while, and trust me, it’s been worth the wait. To kick things up a notch, we’ve drizzled it with a zesty passion fruit glaze and added some thin lemon slices on top for a little extra flair.
Did your loaf crack a bit in the middle? No biggie! That’s actually a good thing—it means your bread rose just right. The top bakes faster than the inside, and as the center cooks, it pushes out air, which can create a nice crack either right in the middle or just off to the side. If yours doesn’t have a big crack, no stress! So many factors come into play, like your specific oven, the heat level, how long you bake it, and where you’ve placed the rack.
