Next, in same bowl, add all the dry ingredients, almond flour, GF flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Mix all ingredients together, then stir in the lemon juice and fold in the lemon zest.
Pour batter into pan and bake at 350 deg F for approximately 17 minutes.
Allow cake to cool completely before removing from pan.
Now you can add any topping you’d like. I did a dusting of powdered stevia blend, or you can top with berries, yogurt, honey or whatever your heart desires!

This cake should turn out very moist. It has an airy but dense consistency. Just sweet enough with a little hint of citrus. It's delicious by itself or with whatever topping your heart desires, a dusting of powdered sweetener, yogurt and berries, or a drizzle of honey! Spring has Sprung! Aloha & Happy Baking- Enjoy!
