Paleo Lemon Blueberry Cake
Prep 20 min Cook 1 hr Serves 12 Source

Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 cups almond flour
  • 3/4 cup tapioca flour
  • 1/3 cup coconut flour
  • 2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 2 cups blueberries
  • 3 eggs
  • 3 lemons (juiced and zested (equals 1/2 cup juice and 3 tbsp zest))
  • 2/3 cup maple syrup
  • 1/2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1/4 cup coconut oil
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract

Steps

  1. 1

    Pre-heat oven to 350° F (175° C).

  2. 2

    Grease the bottom and sides of a 9-inch springform pan with coconut oil or ghee. You can also line the bottom of the springform pan with parchment paper for easy removal.

  3. 3

    Combine all dry ingredients (minus the blueberries) in a large bowl and stir.

  4. 4

    Combine all wet ingredients in a bowl.

  5. 5

    Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix with a hand-mixer on medium-high speed for about 30 seconds or until combined.

  6. 6

    Pour half the batter into the springform pan and add 1/2 cup of the blueberries. Pour the remaining batter and add the rest of the blueberries on top of the batter.

  7. 7

    Bake in the oven for 55-60 min. The batter will remain light colored on top, so use a toothpick to make sure the middle is cooked through.
