Gluten Free Lemon Drizzle Cake

Recommended Posts

Sorry if this has been put on before.. but was told about this at our allotment open day on sunday.. its absolutely gorgeous!!

 

I love lemon drizzle cake, so was always a hard thing to resist even though wheat makes me ill, this will save it happening again!

 

200g butter - softened

200g caster sugar

4 eggs

175g ground almonds

250g mashed potato

zest of 3 lemons

2 tsp gluten free baking powder

 

1. Heat oven to 180C (160C with fan). Butter and line a deep round cake tin

2. Beat suger and butter together until fluffy, then gradually add eggs beating each time

3. Fold in almonds, cold mash, lemon zest and baking powder

4. Tip into tin, level top and bake for 40-45mins, turn onto a wire rack after 10 mins cooling

 

For the drizzle:

 

4 tbsp granulated sugar

juice of 1 lemon

 

1. Mix the sugar and lemon together

2. Pour over the cake, letting it drizzle down the sides.

 

 

** If you need to make it nut free, just swap the almonds for wheat free flour **

 

Enjoy.. I certainly did!! (By the way you really can not tell its made with potato, you may have to try it to believe it!)
