Ingredients
(links below are the gluten free & celiac safe products I used in this recipe)
cake
- 3 cups gluten free 1:1 flour
- 1 3/4 cups granulated sugar
- 2 1/4 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon fine sea salt
- 1 cup Mariani original walnutmilk (or any milk you prefer), room temperature
- 1/2 cup canola oil
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled
- 4 eggs, room temperature
- 1 tablespoon lemon zest
- 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
cream cheese frosting
- 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, room temperature
- 1 3/4 cups powdered sugar
- pinch fine sea salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
Instructions
step 1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 12-cup bundt pan generously with nonstick cooking spray and dust with gluten free 1:1 flour. Set aside.
step 2
In a large bowl, whisk together the gluten free flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
step 3
In a separate large bowl, mix together the milk, both oils, and melted butter. Add the eggs and whisk to combine, then add the lemon zest and juice.
step 4
Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients in two additions and stir until just combined.
step 5
Pour batter into prepared bundt pan and bake for 50 to 60 minutes (mine was perfect at 55 minutes) or until a wooden skewer inserted into the middle of the cake comes out clean or with just a few crumbs attached. Let cool on a wire rack for 30 minutes then carefully invert cake onto wire rack to cool completely.
step 6
While the cake is cooling, make the frosting. In a medium bowl, stir together the cream cheese and butter until well combined. Add the powdered sugar and salt and stir until incorporated. Add the vanilla extract, lemon zest, and juice, stir until completely smooth. Spread over the top of the cake.
