For an extra burst of flavor, consider adding a lemon glaze after the loaves have cooled completely. Simply whisk together powdered sugar with lemon juice until you reach your desired consistency and drizzle over the top. To prevent the lavender from clumping, you can lightly crush it between your fingers before adding it to the batter to release its aroma. If you don't have dried lavender, you can substitute it with 1/2 teaspoon of lavender extract, adding it along with the lemon juice. Ensure your avocado is perfectly ripe for the best texture and flavor in the loaf. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the refrigerator for up to a week.

Jun 23, 2025My loaf sunk in the middle! What did I do wrong?

Apr 28, 2025I didn't have lavender, so I used a bit of lavender extract, and it still turned out beautifully. Thanks for sharing this wonderful recipe!

Nov 15, 2024Make sure not to overmix the batter after adding the flour. Overmixing can develop the gluten and lead to a dense loaf. Also, ensure your oven temperature is accurate.

Oct 12, 2024Yes, you can, but you may need to add a binder like xanthan gum to improve the texture. Follow a 1:1 gluten-free flour blend that has a binder included.
