    This moist and tender cake, bursting with berries and lemon, and an absolute  crowd pleaser.

    Ingredients

    • 3/4 cup caster sugar
    • Zest from 1 lemon
    • 2 Tbs lemon juice
    • 2 large eggs
    • 1/2 cup low fat Greek yoghurt, or natural yoghurt
    • 1/2 cup olive oil or vegetable oil
    • 3/4 cup gluten-free plain flour
    • 1/2 cup almond meal
    • 2 tsp gluten free baking powder
    • 3 Gluten Free Weet-Bix™, finely crushed
    • 1/2 tsp salt
    • 3/4 cup frozen blueberries

    Method

    1. Step 1

      Preheat oven to 180°C. Lightly oil a 20 cm round cake tin, line base with a round of baking paper.
    2. Step 2

      In a large bowl, combine sugar and lemon zest. Use the back of a spoon to rub the zest into the sugar until fragrant. Add lemon juice, eggs, yoghurt, and oil, to the lemon sugar. Whisk for 1 minute until mixture is very smooth and frothy.
    3. Step 3

      In a medium bowl, stir together flour, almond meal, crushed
    4. Step 4

      Transfer batter into prepared pan and bake for 40 – 45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the centre of the cake comes out clean.
    5. Step 5

      Cool 20 mins in tin. Use a knife to loosen edges and turn out onto a rack to cool completely.

    Tips

    • Add an optional lemon glaze: combine 2 - 3 tsp lemon juice with 2 Tbsp icing sugar and whisk until smooth. Brush or drizzle glaze over cooled cake.
    • We recommend using a gluten free flour blend that contains Xanthan Gum (sometimes listed in the ingredients as 415). If your blend does not contain Xanthan, we suggest adding 1/4 teaspoon Xanthan Gum powder to the flour in step 3.
