I just made this and it was delicious! I was skeptical, but I’m glad that didn’t hold me back. I did make a few tweaks. I only used the juice of one lemon and added a half a teaspoon of lemon extract. I also added 3 tablespoons of ricotta cheese. It came out so moist and delicious. Thank you so much for this recipe. I’ll be using it often since I am on keto and have a sweet tooth. Happy new year.

Hi. I made this recipe for my daughter, while visiting the family in NZ. We all loved it, especially the zippy tang of lemon. I've been playing around with an apple cake recipe, trying to figure how to make it less crumbly, with more fiber. Today I used 2 Tbsp. of chia seeds, blended with 1/3 cup of water. I stirred, and let sit covered overnight. When mixing the cake, I just beat in the chia mixture. It turned out beautifully. We are visiting our daughter again, and I will try the chia mixture with the lemon cake. I feel it will give the cake a lemon/poppy seed taste! Plus, we get the extra fiber! Thank you for this wonderful recipe.

You should change your 2 star review, now that you realized your mistake on the topping (see below), and said it was yummy. It's not fair to Lisa to leave it that way.

Making this in Ireland! I'm an American expat and I normally have good success with my American low carb recipes using Irish/British ingredients, measures, and equipment. (Yes, UK cups are different, heh.) I cannot get Swerve or Pure here, so I am using granulated xylitol. I'm not using erythritol because the last time I refrigerated a sweet thing made with erythritol, the sweetener crystallised out of solution and made my lemon curd crunchy (ew). My (Irish, chef) husband said, approvingly, "That looks like it will be like a steamed pudding". He's going to make some low-carb creme anglaise (milk, cream, eggs, vanilla, xylitol) for it when it comes out. Let you know later how it did 🙂

In reply to Vickie Willis. It should be okay in a larger crock.

I only have a large oval 6 quart Crockpot and don't wish to double the recipe. I have baked bread in my Crockpot in a round 6" stainless steel spring-form pan during hot weather months. If I put this into a pan, will it bake correctly? Thank you!

In reply to Roberta. Thanks for sharing that tip Roberta! I'll add it to the recipe card.

Seems a good recipe to try, but I permit to make a note about the suggestion of using aluminium foil since it's known to be better to avoid aluminium in contact with acidic foods (lemons are acid, we know), so I think in this case maybe could be a wiser option use one of those so useful crock-pot linens that also makes cleaning your slowcooker a breeze 😉 they're also useful to transfer any leftover in the fridge.
Anyway, no criticism, just my humble point of view, thanks for sharing your recipes!

In reply to Becky. Swerve confectioners will work instead of the regular Swerve. You'd need about 6 tablespoons.

In reply to Lisa MarcAurele. I usually buy pyure sweetner but messed up last time and now I have a canister of erythritol (yuck). Can I use my swerve confectioners instead of granulated? I don't want to mess it up trying to figure out how much erythritol to use, it's sooo sweet. Thank you.

In reply to Lisa MarcAurele. I'm terribly sorry. Where did I get the idea that it was a crumb topping? My mistake. No wonder I was confused—I made an assumption about what you meant by "topping." It was very tasty!

In reply to Lisa Vaas. You can use the oven if you'd like, but it may not come out as moist.
