Description
A naturally sweetened lemon blueberry pudding cake that separates into a fluffy top and luscious lemony pudding underneath—made completely from scratch with no refined sugar.
Ingredients
1/2 cup almond flour
1/4 cup coconut flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 cup erythritol or monk fruit sweetener
2 large eggs, separated
1 tbsp lemon zest
1/4 cup lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
1/2 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
2 tbsp melted coconut oil or unsalted butter
1 tsp vanilla extract
3/4 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a small baking dish (about 8×8 inches).
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, and salt.
3. In a large bowl, beat egg yolks with sweetener until pale and creamy.
4. Add lemon zest, lemon juice, milk, melted coconut oil or butter, and vanilla extract to the yolk mixture and whisk well.
5. Gradually stir the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until smooth.
6. In a separate bowl, beat egg whites until soft peaks form.
7. Gently fold the egg whites into the batter in two batches.
8. Pour batter into the prepared dish and evenly scatter blueberries over the top.
9. Place the dish inside a larger baking pan and pour hot water into the outer pan halfway up the sides.
10. Bake for 30–35 minutes, or until the top is golden and set, but a slight jiggle remains underneath.
11. Carefully remove from oven and water bath. Let cool slightly before serving.
Notes
The cake will naturally separate into a sponge-like top and a pudding layer underneath.
Use fresh lemon juice for the brightest flavor.
Best served warm or chilled, dusted with powdered erythritol if desired.
Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
