Lemon dessert (aka Keto lemon Loaf)-

Ingredients:

For the loaf:
  • 1 ½ cups almond flour
  • ¼ cup coconut flour
  • ⅓ cup erythritol (or any keto-friendly sweetener like monk fruit or stevia)
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • 4 large eggs
  • ⅓ cup unsweetened almond milk
  • ⅓ cup melted butter (or coconut oil)
  • Zest of 2 lemons
  • ⅓ cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp lemon extract (optional, for more lemony flavor)
For the glaze:
  • 2 tbsp powdered erythritol
  • 1 tbsp freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 1-2 tsp unsweetened almond milk (to thin, if needed)

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a loaf pan with parchment paper or grease it well.
  2. Mix dry ingredients: In a medium-sized bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, erythritol, baking powder, and salt. Whisk together until evenly mixed.
  3. Mix wet ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, almond milk, melted butter, lemon zest, lemon juice, and vanilla extract (and lemon extract, if using).
  4. Combine: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Don’t overmix the batter.
  5. Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Bake in the preheated oven for about 45-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  6. Cool: Let the loaf cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
  7. Make the glaze: While the loaf cools, prepare the glaze by mixing the powdered erythritol with lemon juice. Add almond milk if necessary to achieve your desired glaze consistency.
  8. Glaze and serve: Once the loaf is completely cool, drizzle the lemon glaze over the top.
