Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C) and grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan with a little melted butter or line it with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, blend the melted butter and erythritol sweetener until well combined.
Add the eggs one at a time to the butter mixture, beating well after each addition until smooth and fluffy.
Stir in the lemon zest, lemon juice, vanilla extract, and heavy cream until fully incorporated.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined and a smooth batter forms.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 50 minutes, or until the loaf is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the lemon loaf to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Slice and serve. Enjoy your deliciously moist and low carb lemon loaf!
