Preparation for Healthy Lemon Poppy Seed Crumb Cake
- Prepare an 8-by-8-inch baking pan by preheating the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit, then greasing it gently and lining it with parchment paper.
- Remove the zest from your lemon, then put it aside.
- Eggs, yogurt, maple syrup, freshly squeezed lemon juice, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract are mixed together in a big mixing basin until they are completely smooth.
- Mix in the poppy seeds, almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Lemon zest should be folded in well by hand before the batter is poured into the baking pan that has been lined.
- Mix up all of the crumble toppings in a small dish, then sprinkle them on top of the batter in a uniform layer.
- Bake for 38 to 42 minutes, checking the cake with a toothpick every few minutes.
