Lemon Raspberry Crumb Cake

A delicious zingy and fruity cake that’s perfect for summer. Vegan, gluten-free and healthy enough to be enjoyed for breakfast! 

Who could say no to cake for breakfast? These lemon raspberry crumb cake slices are high in fibre, omega-3 essential fatty acid, vitamin E, manganese and magnesium and each slice containing only around 173 calories per slice.

I used oat flour and almond flour to make it gluten-free and low GI. Using almonds and almond flour in treats is a great way to make sure you’re getting sufficient amounts of vitamin E, which a lot of us aren’t getting enough of (including myself!).

To sweeten, I made it with both brown sugar and coconut sugar. Using coconut sugar resulted in a less sweet cake, but still delicious and the benefit of using coconut sugar is that it has a lower GI meaning it’s broken down and absorbed slower in the body and doesn’t have the same impact on insulin levels.
