The sugar-free lemon cake

Hmm. November the month of the Diabetes I want to share sugar-free recipes for the family and friends or just for YOU, one of those days when you feel like staying home and have a treat with a cup of coffee or tea.

I am not a fan of baking, because it takes me a little bit of time to prepare, and to wait until is finished so I am more keen on cooking recipes that can be eaten straight away, although when I find a sugar free recipe that I can bake to my boys I will go for it.

This recipe was very delicious especially because is not sweet, I used a normal sugar-free yoghurt but if you want to have more lemony flavour please find a lemon yoghurt is soft, not very sweet, but sweet enough for a dessert. Is a perfect dessert in any season, good for lunchboxes, or afternoon teas, or even for breakfast, is healthy and kids love it.

In the video, I did not put the ingredients but just watch the video to see how to make it.

Let me know what you think about it and share it with me

Much love

INGREDIENTS

3 eggs
1 sugar-free lemon yoghurt (125ml)
3 cups of wholemeal flour
1 cup of coconut oil or almond oil
1 lemon (the juice and the skin)
3 tbsp of stevia
3 tsp baking powder
pinch of salt

STEP 1
Separate egg yolk and egg whites in two different bowls. In the bowl with the egg yolks, add lemon juice, lemon peel, yoghurt, oil and stevia. Mix them together.

Once everything is mixed add the three cups of flour plus the baking powder, it will become a little thick but just keep mixing until is soft.

STEP 2
We have the other bowl with the egg whites, so mix the whites until fluffy approx for 2 minutes.

STEP 3
Let’s mix the dry ingredients with the fluffy egg whites then put the mixture into a fully oily tin

STEP 4

Put the tin in the oven for 40 mins, test with a knife, and make sure the knife will come out clean.

STEP 5

Let it cooled and enjoy!

The cake will be delicious warm or cold with some yoghurt on the side or cream with some berries or even kiwi fruit.

If you have any comments please do .I want to hear from you.!

Adios

I am passionate about food and nutrition. Originally from Bogota -Colombia currently living in New Zealand. I am a Nutritionist & Dietitian. After becoming a mum and working in different areas like education, banking and sales, I came to the realisation that I wanted to come back to what I loved and what I have passion for this is Health and Nutrition. In September 2016 I started my online course with the biggest nutrition school in America called Institute of Integrative Nutrition( IIN). The Institute of Integrative Nutrition has given me the knowledge and support about Nutrition in a Holistic way. I have never thought that this would be possible, but after a year I realised that definitely secondary food (food that is on the plate) is part of the puzzle of health and happiness. There is something called primary food which are the pillars that together contribute to a better wellbeing and a better nutrition. Relationships, spirituality, career and exercise plus a having good sleep habits can contribute to a better YOU. I am a Holistic Nutritionist and I am looking forward to taking you on this journey of better habits and a prosperous life. Always smile with gratitude! Thank you for taking the time to read this and I hope you get to know me. AndreaP
