This Flourless Almond and Lemon Cake is my adaptation of a recipe I found over at Simply Recipes.

The original version used white sugar, which I changed to coconut sugar and I simplified the process a little.

    I just made the flourless almond and lemon cake. Delicious! It’s always so hard to find a dessert recipe which my sister and dad can enjoy as they cannot have gluten, fructose or dairy. This one ticks all the boxes! Thank you!
