Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch round cake pan or line with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, mix together the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
In another bowl, whisk together the almond milk, melted butter, erythritol, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing well until the batter is smooth and free of lumps.
Fold in the fresh blueberries and lemon zest gently, making sure they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and spread it evenly using a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 35 to 40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the cake to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Slice and serve the cake on its own or topped with a dollop of whipped cream or a sprinkle of powdered erythritol for extra sweetness.
