Lemon {half} Pound Cake.

Pound Cake derived its name from the equally proportioned ingredients. My version of this grain & gluten-free pound cake, is much closer to half lb proportions, hence the name.
enjoy.

Ingredients:
1/2 cup coconut oil
4 eggs
1/2 cup coconut nectar
2 Tbsp vanilla extract
1/2 cup water
3/4 cup coconut flour
1/4 tsp sea salt
1 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
zest of 1/2 lemon

Preheat oven to 350˚.

Prepare a spring-form pan with parchment paper.

Mix oil, eggs, nectar, vanilla, water, lemon juice, and zest in a standing mixer and whisk for a few minutes.

In a small bowl sift flour and salt together.

Slowly add your dry ingredients to the mixer, until throughly blended.

Pour batter into prepared pan.

Bake 40-45 mins until golden around the edges.
