Gluten Free Coconut Flour Grapefruit Pound Cake

Photo by Recipe Author

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.

Servings: 8-10 (1 loaf)
Preparation Time: 15 minutes

• 5 eggs
• 2 to 4 tablespoons raw honey (sweeten to your taste)
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup whole milk yogurt
• 2/3 cup freshly squeezed grapefruit juice
• zest of 1 large grapefruit (about 3 teaspoons)
• 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, melted
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup coconut flour, sifted

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9x5-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 an electric mixer; next add the honey, vanilla, yogurt, 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, salt, 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 :)
