How to Make Honey Lemon Bread

Preheat your bread machine according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Add the warm water, honey, oil, and eggs to the bread machine pan. Make sure the eggs are well-beaten.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Add the dry ingredients to the bread machine pan, followed by the lemon zest and lemon juice.
Select the 'dough' cycle on your bread machine and let it run until the dough is completely mixed and formed.
Once the dough cycle is complete, remove the dough and gently shape it into a loaf. Place it in a greased 9x5 inch loaf pan.
Let the dough rise in a warm place for about 30-45 minutes, or until doubled in size.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Bake the bread for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
