Gluten Free Lemon Cake (Edit recipe)

This is the perfect, moist lemon cake that's busting with flavor! Honestly, this reminds me of the Starbucks lemon loaf I used to buy as a teen, yet my cake version is way healthier in terms of ingredients! I like eating this cake chilled to refresh me on a hot day! Provecho amigos!

Ingredients

Cake:

  • 0.75 cup Unsalted Butter, room temperature
  • 1 cup Cane Sugar, My favorite is Wholesome Sweet Regenerative Organic Brand
  • 3 whole Eggs, room temperature
  • 0.333 cup Milk
  • 0.666 cup Lemon Juice, I used Meyer Lemon, but you can use whatever you have on hand!
  • 3 - 4 Tbsp Lemon zest
  • 3 cups Gluten Free Flour, I use a 1:1 blend, can substitute for All Purpose Flour!
  • 2 tsp Baking Powder
  • 1 tsp Baking Soda
  • 0.5 tsp Redmond Real Salt

Lemon Glaze:

Process

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results
  1. Preheat oven to 350.
  2. In a bowl beat softened unsalted butter and sugar together until creamed. Slowly add eggs until well combined.
  3. Add in lemon juice, zest, milk, and sour cream. Beat ingredients well into the batter.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, salt, baking powder and soda. Add dry ingredients slowly into batter.
  5. Mix all ingredients until well combined.
  6. Pour batter carefully into pre-greased bundt pan (I use avocado oil spray). Tap the pan a few times on counter to level and release air bubbles.
  7. Bake for 45-50 minutes or until a tooth pick comes out clean.
  8. Let cake cool for 15 minutes. Flip the bundt pan over onto a cooling rack to finish cooling. Note: A cutting board works fine if you don't have a cooling rack!
  9. For the glaze mix together sugar, lemon juice and zest, with 1 tbsp of milk at a time.
  10. Ensure your cake is thoroughly cooled before glazing! For glaze over the top of the cake and serve! Provecho!

Notes

I've made the recipe gluten free (using a 1:1 gluten free flour mix), feel free to substitute for all purpose flour!
