Delicious Lemon Ricotta Loaf - moist and super easy to make, this lemon cake is a must make for a healthy treat. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Years ago I used to make this amazing Lemon Ricotta Loaf and when I say amazing, it really was delicious in every way. I think the ricotta does something magical to the cake keeping it super moist. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

So last week I figured I would have a go at a slimming option. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was a complete experiment and I really wasn't sure if it would work out. Some of my best recipes come from this kind of genius moments in the kitchen when I throw some ingredients together and hope for the best.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As I opened the oven and removed the loaf - the amazing smell of lemon hit me instantly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I literally was drooling as I waited for it to cool down, so I could slice and sample. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of course, no lemon loaf is complete without a little lemon drizzle over the top that seeps into the loaf adding that extra delicious lemony flavour. A  step that I just wasn't going to leave out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This was seriously delicious and I've made it a couple more times since even adding some slices to the freezer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One thing I need to add is that I use an Erythritol based granulated sweetener in this loaf. It's my preferred choice because it's natural based instead of artificial and is the closest in taste to normal sugar without the calories. You also use the same measurements as sugar like for like. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Something to bear in mind if using a different granulated sweetener because the final bake\/taste may not be the same. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
