8 c Cake-and-pastry flour
6 c Granulated sugar
1/4 c Baking powder
2 ts Salt
CAKE:
3 1/3 c Basic Cake Mix [above]
3/4 c Milk
2 tb Poppy seeds
1 tb Orange rind, grated
2 ts Lemon rind, grated
1/2 c Vegetable oil
2 Eggs
2 ts Vanilla
VANILLA CREAM CHEESE ICING:
1 pk Cream cheese [250g]
2 ts Vanilla
1 c Icing sugar, sifted
Basic Cake Mix: In large bowl, mix together flour, sugar, baking powder and salt until well combine. [To store: transfer to airtight container, store in cool dry place for up to 2 months. Stir well before using.] Makes enough for 4 cakes. Cake: In large bowl and using electric mixer at medium speed, beat BAsic Cake Mix, milk, poppy seeds, orange and lemon rinds for 2 minutes. Add oil, eggs and vanilla; reduce speed to low and beat for 1 minute. Pour into greased 9-inch square cake pan; bake in 375F 190C oven for 35 minutes or until cake tester inserted in centre comes out clean. Let cool in pan on rack. Icing: In bowl, beat cream cheese with vanilla at medium speed for 30 seconds or until blended. Add icing sugar; beat for 1-1/2 minutes or until smooth and creamy. Makes 1-1/2 cups Cake Tips: 1. to measure dry ingredients properly, spoon into dry measure until
heaping without packing or tapping, then level off with straight edge of knife. 2. Beating times for cakes should be followed precisely; if times are
shortened, cake will lack structure; if lengthened, cake will be tough. 3. Cakes can be well wrapped and frozen for up to 2 weeks.

minutes. Source: Canadian Living magazine, Oct 94 Presented in article by Elizabeth Baird: "Baking Up The Best" Recipe by Canadian Living Test Kitchen [-=PAM=-] PA_Meadows@msn.com

Lemon Poppy Seed Pound Cake
Lemon Poppy Seed Pound Cake
Full Recipe:
This pound cake is beyond addictive, which is really dangerous when a recipe is this easy to make! There's a touch of lavender in the batter, which really adds a wonderful depth of flavor to the cake. I Love the texture from the poppy seeds, too bad they get a bad wrap because of sad, stale, and often oily store-bought muffins. I love the way they look suspended in each slice, like nature's sprinkles! I maxed out the lemon juice in this recipe, filling each bite with a wonderful zing. The glaze is so simple but amazing, confectioners' sugar whisked with fresh lemon juice. It hardens for a wonderful crunch and tastes like lemonade!

I finally found poppy seeds at my regular baking ingredient shop and immediately thought of making lemon poppy seed cake. I love the look of the poppy seeds in the cake and the crunchy texture when I bite into them. This cake is so flavorful, refreshing and delicious on its own but when top with the lemon cheesecake frosting, it is another whole new level - super yummy!

Coconut Flour = 60 g / 1/2 cup (OR Almond flour = 240 g / 2 cups)
Baking Powder = 8 g / 2 tsp
Monk fruit = 30 g / 3 1/2 tbsp (This amount is very low so that it balances out with the sweetness from the frosting. If you are omitting the frosting, then you need to increase the sweetener for the batter to about 60 to 80 g. You can also use any other keto friendly sweetener.)

DIRECTIONS
1. Preheat the oven at 340 F or 170 C.

3. Add all the wet ingredients and whisk until well combined. The batter is quite thick.
4. In the video, I used a 6 inch (15 cm) pan greased and lined with parchment paper.
5. Transfer the batter into the pan and spread evenly.
6. Bake for 40 minutes or until a wooden skewer comes out clean.
7. Once ready, remove the cake from pan and cool completely on a wire rack before frosting.
LEMON CREAM CHEESE FROSTING
Unsalted butter (softened) = 30 g / 2 tbsp
Cream cheese (softened) = 100 g / 7 tbsp
Allulose Powdered Sweetener (or any keto friendly powdered sweetener) = 100 g / 0.8 cup
Fresh lemon juice = 30 ml / 2 tbsp
DIRECTIONS
1. In a bowl, add the butter, cream cheese and whisk until smooth and creamy.
2. Add the lemon juice and whisk to combine.
3. Add the powdered sweetener and whisk until well combined.
4. If the consistency is too runny or soft, you can add either more cream cheese or powdered sweetener.
5. Chill until ready for use.
6. When the cake is ready, spread the frosting evenly on the top of the cake. You can also frost the sides if you have leftover frosting.
7. Sprinkle with some poppy seeds (Optional).
