Ingredients
Scale
- 1 1/2 cups almond flour (blanched almond flour)
- 1/4 cup coconut flour
- 1/3 cup allulose (or granulated monk fruit)
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 cup butter (softened)
- 1/2 cup sour cream (or full-fat Greek yogurt)
- 3 large eggs
- 1/4 cup milk (I used unsweetened almond milk)
- 1 teaspoon lemon extract
- 1/2 cup sugar free powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180C/350F. Grease a 9 x 5-inch loaf pan and set aside.
- In a mixing bowl, combine your dry ingredients and set aside.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together your softened butter, sour cream, eggs, milk, and lemon extract until combined.
- Gently fold through your dry ingredients until fully combined.
- Transfer the cake batter into the loaf pan.
- Bake for 50 minutes, or until a skewer comes out mostly clean.
- Remove the pan from the oven and let the lemon loaf cool completely.
- Once cool, pour the glaze over it and let it sit until it firms up.
- In a small bowl, whisk together your powdered sweetener, lemon juice, and vanilla extract, until a thin glaze remains.
