Lemon-Thyme Bread image

Lemon and thyme go together like milk and cookies. Fresh thyme is best, but if you must use dried, reduce the amount to 1 tablespoon and crush it between your fingers before adding it to the batter. -Cathy Tang, Redmond, Washington

I'm not a huge fan of lemon thyme, but I was pleasantly surprised by this bread. The flavors were well-balanced and the bread was very moist. I'll definitely be making this again!

I thought this bread was just okay. The flavor was a bit too lemon-y for my taste. I might try making it again with less lemon zest.

This bread was a bit too sweet for my taste, but the texture was great. I think I'll try making it again with less sugar.

This bread is a real treat! I love the combination of sweet and savory flavors. The lemon zest adds a nice citrusy zing, while the thyme gives it a subtle herbal flavor. The bread is also very moist and fluffy. I highly recommend it!
