Lemon and mascarpone cake {sans gluten}

Cake au citron

L’autre jour je suis rentrée des courses avec un énorme pot de mascarpone mais sans savoir vraiment quoi en faire. Et comme je ne pouvais pas manger d’œufs crus (oui je sais je radote là !), exit le tiramisù ! Mais je n’avais pas envie non plus de me priver d’une petite gourmandise pour l’heure du goûter ! C’est là que l’idée d’un cake au citron et au mascarpone m’est venuet comme je ne fais pas les choses à moitié, ce gâteau est même sans gluten à base de farine de maïs et de poudre d’amandes.

No basic recipe but a complete experimentation and it was only when tasting it that I realized that I had not missed it (phew !) … the cake had a soft texture that I loved ! It will still be necessary that I do not devour everything before the return of Mr.… And no, mascarpone is not just for tiramisù !!!

    Corn flour, citron, almond powder and mascarpone, That, it speaks to me! And I have no doubt about the softness of this cake. I think you can easily replace the mascarpone with yogurt.!

  • He looks divine!

  • great recipe!!! Some time ago I tested a cake similar to : a free-style with rice flour, mascarpone and lemon and it was very good. Your photos are to die for!! I have to try yours!!

    Hold, I just published a lemon cake recipe too., but very different from yours ! It tastes very melting, I will try your recipe with mascarpone. If you want, I have a tiramisu recipe without raw eggs on my blog, the eggs are cooked in a bain-marie with the sugar as for a sabayon, and the tiramisù holds up much better as a bonus :

      Hello, can you tell me how to buy hazelnut powder at a good price (and quality) through the Internet? I live in Blumenau/SC.

      • Emilie
        20.1.15

        I don't really know him, it is better to buy whole hazelnuts and mix them.

    I did not find corn flour, do you think that with wheat flour, it may or may not work ? 🙂

    • Emilie
      27.11.13

      I think there is no problem with wheat flour but you just have to be careful not to overwork the dough after incorporating the flour. 😉

  • Is it chemical or normal yeast?? Merci!

    • Emilie

      It's baking powder but gluten-free if that's important to you..

  • Hmmmm, very tempting this cake and these photos are so pretty!! we would eat them!

    mMM Your cake must be very moist ! I also use mascarpone in cheesecakes (and in the salty too ;-))

    can i replace the mascarpone with yogurt? ?

    • Emilie
      23.1.14

      Yes but the best will be a Greek yogurt !

  • Very nice recipe that allows me to discover other gluten-free ones.
    I prepared it this weekend and added an egg because the batter was too thick.

    I will talk about it soon on my blog and I am of course referring to your blog.

    Merci!

    • Emilie
      8.6.14

      No worries Manu, you can replace the butter with 5 cl of oil or by 80 g almond puree.

    Bonjour
    My cake is baking… in my bread oven. I'll tell you what it is. Of course I have the cake option in my oven. I took lime instead of yellow, only for a matter of taste. I can't wait to taste it.
