Lemon Loaf (Gluten Free)

Well I have been seeing a lot of the copycat recipes for Starbucks Lemon pound cake and it looks so good!!.....But I can't have any of the ingredients so I wanted to try a recipe that I could enjoy!....I am trying to cut sugar also and although there is only honey in the actual loaf the icing does have powdered sugar in it so you can omit if you like. This was really easy to put together also......here is what I did.....Enjoy!!

 

 

Dry Ingredients

 

1 1/2 cups Almond flour

3 Tablespoons Coconut flour

1 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1/4 teaspoon salt

zest from 2 lemons

Add dry ingredients to bowl....whisk to remove lumps and set aside

 

Wet Ingredients

 

3 eggs whisked

juice of the 2 lemons you zested

1 teaspoon vanilla

 1/3 cup coconut milk

1/3 cup honey

2 Tablespoons melted butter or coconut oil

1 teaspoon lemon extract

 

Icing

 

1/2 cup powder sugar

1 Tablespoons water

1 teaspoon lemon extract

 

Preheat oven to 350

 

Add wet ingredients to bowl and whisk together start adding the dry ingredients and mix until incorporated ...do not over mix

 

 

 

 

Prepare a loaf pan with parchment overlapping pour mixture in spreading evenly and bake at 350 for 35-40 minutes test with a toothpick making sure it is clean.....my loaf took exactly 35 minutes

 

Ice when loaf is cool
