Grain-free and nut-free lemon cake
Servings: 24 squares
Ingredients
- 156 g coconut flour
- 400 g honey
- 150 g butter (at room temperature)
- 2+1 whole lemons (2 juices and 3 zests - don't skip the zests)
- 12 large eggs
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 tbsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- The quantities are for a 40x30cm dish (about 24 squares). Feel free to divide by 3 for a 8" dish.
- With a whisk on high speed, cream butter, honey and the lemon zests until you get an homogeneous paste.
- Add eggs and lemon juice and whisk on high speed for about 1 minute. You'll see tiny bits of butter floating, that's normal. No need to whisk longer.
- Add coconut flour, salt and baking soda on top (you don't want it to touch the lemon juice until the last minute).
- Whisk on high speed for about 30 seconds.
- Pour in a large gratin dish (40x30cm).
- Bake at 180°C (350°F) for 40'-50' (depending on the oven). A knife inserted in the center must come out clean. If the middle is not ready and the top is turning too brown, lower the heat to 155°C (315°F) for the last 15'.
