Today, I am making a very tasty Flourless Raspberry Lemon Loaf.  Made with frozen raspberries, lemon juice, a touch of maple syrup and gluten free flours, this loaf is beyond moist and fluffy. Each slice has only 1.5 tsp of sugar and no white flour. This raspberry lemon loaf is a very healthy, no guilt snack!

Whether you observe a gluten free diet or not, everybody should cut back on sugar and refined carbohydrates (like white flour). Sugar and white flours promote systemic inflammation and inflammation drives disease. Scientific studies have shown that inflammation is the root of ALL disease.

This  raspberry lemon loaf will allow you to enjoy a baked good without all the white flour and sugars typically found in storebought baked goods. But it tastes good! I promise.

This Flourless Raspberry Lemon Loaf is gluten free, grain free, dairy free, low in sugar, paleo friendly. Use monk fruit sweetener to make it keto.

Key Ingredients & Substitutions

    • Frozen Raspberries- Substitute frozen blueberries for raspberries.

     

    • Tapioca flour– Tapioca flour is a naturally gluten free, low net carb “flour” that helps ingredients bind together. It is key to helping bakers achieve a fluffy, light and spongy texture. Coconut flour or arrowroot starch would be a good substitute.
    • Maple syrup– substitute with honey. Use Swerve or monk fruit sweetener to make it keto friendly.

     

    How to Store this Flourless Raspberry Lemon Loaf?

    Store loaf in an airtight glass container or ziplock bag. It is ok on the counter for a couple days but after that it should be refrigerated.  Should be eaten within 5 days. Freezes well. 

    This bread freeze well. I will slice bread before freezing making it easy to eat a piece or two on demand.
