No Added Sugar Lemon and Raspberry Loaf, an easy dessert recipe for a moist cake dessert accented with berries and topped with a glaze.
Servings: 8
Ingredients
- 1¼ cups Flour. -Plus 1tbs for raspberries.
- 2 tsp Baking Powder
- ½ tsp Salt
- 2 Eggs.
- ¾ cup Greek Yogurt.
- ½ cup Coconut Oil. -Your coconut oil should be melted.
- ½ cup Sugar Alternative. - See post for details.
- 1 tbsp Lemon Zest.
- 1¼ cups Raspberries. -Plus additional for decoration.
For the lemon glaze you will need
- 1 cup Sugar Free Powdered Sugar
- 3 tbsp Lemon Juice
Instructions
- Start by preheating your oven to 350 and prepping your loaf pan with parchment paper.
- Place the raspberries in a medium bowl and toss them with one tablespoon of the flour. Set this aside while you continue.
- In a large bowl, sift or whisk together the remaining flour with the baking powder and salt.
- Next, in a large mixing bowl, and on medium speed, beat together the eggs, Greek yogurt, vanilla extract, and coconut oil until blended. Then blend in the sugar alternative and lemon zest.
- Add the dry ingredients from the first bowl to the mixing bowl and mix until just combined. Then use a rubber spatula or similar item to gently fold in your raspberries.
- Transfer the batter to your prepared loaf pan and then give the bottom of the loaf pan a couple of light taps on your countertop to help it evenly spread.
- Bake your loaf cake in the center of your oven for 50-60 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
- Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes and then use the parchment paper to carefully remove the cake from the pan and place onto a cooling rack for fully cool.
- To make the glaze, combine the sugar free powdered sugar with the lemon juice. Use a whisk to combine the ingredients, adding additional lemon juice or powdered alternative as needed for consistency.
- Use a skewer or toothpick to poke holes over the top and sides of your cake. Then spoon or use a pastry brush the glaze over the holes so that the glaze goes into them. You can then place the remaining raspberries on top of the cake so that they stick to the glaze.
- Let the glaze set for 15 minutes before slicing and serving your cake.
