Ingredients

  • 1.5 cups Almond flour
  • 0.25 cup Coconut flour
  • 1 teaspoon Baking powder
  • 0.25 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.75 cup Erythritol sweetener
  • 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, melted
  • 4 large Eggs
  • 0.25 cup Lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon Lemon zest
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
  • 0.25 cup Heavy cream
  • 0.5 cup Cream cheese, softened

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan and line it with parchment paper for easy removal.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, and salt. Whisk together and set aside.

Step 3

In another bowl, whisk together the erythritol sweetener and melted butter until well combined.

Step 4

Add the eggs to the butter mixture one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the lemon juice, lemon zest, vanilla extract, and heavy cream.

Step 5

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until fully combined. The batter will be relatively thick.

Step 6

In a small bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy.

Step 7

Gently fold the cream cheese into the batter, trying not to overmix to maintain pockets of cream cheese in the loaf.

Step 8

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread evenly with a spatula.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the top is golden brown.

Step 10

Allow the lemon loaf cake to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.
