Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Almond flour
- 0.25 cup Coconut flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon Sea salt
- 5 large Eggs
- 0.5 cup Honey
- 0.5 cup Coconut oil
- 1 tablespoon Vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon Lemon zest
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan with coconut oil or line with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, baking soda, and sea salt. Whisk until well mixed.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs with an electric mixer until frothy. This will take about 2-3 minutes.
Add honey, melted coconut oil, vanilla extract, and lemon zest to the beaten eggs. Mix well until the ingredients are thoroughly combined.
Slowly incorporate the dry mixture into the wet mixture, stirring with a spatula or spoon until the batter is smooth and no lumps remain.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the pound cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Once completely cooled, slice and serve your Paleo Gluten-Free Pound Cake. Enjoy!
