Sweet Melissa Lemon Balm Bread image

I have a lot of Lemon Balm growing up in my herb garden so when I ran across this a Lemon Balm Bread recipe in a Gooseberry Patch Christmas book I decided to try it. I renamed it Sweet Melissa Lemon Balm Bread. Melissa is the Latin name for Lemon Balm. This bread is VERY moist.

I love the combination of lemon and poppy seeds in this bread. It's a great way to use up fresh lemon balm from the garden.
