AKA "MILO'S BREAD" after a boy from a book I read in first grade about a killer beet... This truly is the first thing I've completely baked in my head-it distracted me through my whole philosophy class...BEET bread! Read more Unique savory flavor, with, of course, Lemons! And Poppy Seeds to make it cheerful. Beautiful deep Rose color--Smell alone is worth it!! --mine looks kind of like a meatloaf, because beet juice is in the glaze ^_^ My housemate calls it "Beet Loaf" See less

- Enjoy because beets are wonderful! It may scare people, but I lie and say its strawberries until they take a bite...cream cheese or jam (homemade of course) make it even better.
My beets are chunky because I have no electric kitchen tools...such is life in a dorm...it's all arm muscle baby!

BEET LOAF! sounds a little gross...

I dedicate this recipe to my mum who got me started on the goodness that is the canned BEET!

Second try at it--with alterations. So cute as muffins...

EVERYONE who had the first batch also liked the crumble tops better than the glaze.
