Ingredients
- 2 cups almond flour
- 0.25 cup coconut flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon sea salt
- 4 large eggs
- 0.5 cup honey
- 0.25 cup fresh lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons lemon zest
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.25 cup coconut oil, melted
- 1 tablespoon poppy seeds (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a loaf pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang on the sides for easy removal.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, coconut flour, baking soda, and sea salt until well combined.
Step 3
In a separate medium-sized bowl, beat the eggs, then whisk in the honey, lemon juice, lemon zest, and vanilla extract until smooth and well integrated.
Step 4
Slowly add the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring until you achieve a consistent batter.
Step 5
Fold in the melted coconut oil until fully incorporated. If you like, stir in the optional poppy seeds for a bit of extra texture and flavor.
Step 6
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing out the top with a spatula.
Step 7
Place the loaf in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Step 8
Once baked, remove from the oven and let the loaf cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before lifting it out using the parchment paper overhang. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 9
Slice and serve the Paleo Lemon Loaf on its own or with a side of fresh berries for a refreshing and healthy delight.
