Coconut Flour Grapefruit Pound Cake *

 Email This Recipe       Print This Page

This coconut flour pound cake recipe is wonderfully delicate and moist. The grapefruit juice and yogurt combined really gives the cake a sweet, yet tart flavor. It would be just as delicious with lemon, lime, or orange juice/zest. If you are not on the healing diet, or some other sugar restricted diet, feel free to sweeten this with some raw honey in place of the stevia.

• 5 eggs
• 1/2 tsp vanilla
• 1 cup whole milk yogurt
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 2/3 cup freshly squeezed grapefruit juice
• zest of 1 large grapefruit (about 3 tsp)
• 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, melted
• 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 tsp baking soda
• 1/2 tsp NuNaturals NuStevia™ White Stevia™ Powder
• 1 cup coconut flour, sifted

Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan with coconut oil, line the bottom of the loaf pan with parchment paper. Grease, with coconut oil, and flour the pan using coconut flour.

In a large bowl beat the eggs with a wire whisk; next add the vanilla, yogurt, salt, and grapefruit juice and zest, mix until combined. Add the melted butter in a constant stream, mixing continuously.

Using a spoon or spatula fold in the dry ingredients to the wet – baking powder, baking soda, stevia powder, and sifted coconut flour. Mix well after each addition.

Bake for 45 to 55 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center of cake comes out clean. Let cake cool for 5 minutes in pan. Invert on a cooling rack and let cool completely……if you can wait that long

Makes 1 loaf.

*Safe on week 4 of the healing diet.
