So I wanted to see if it was possible to make a yummy refined sugar free lemon drizzle cake. I haven't iced this one as I did the last one

I used honey in place of sugar for the cake, and then xylitol for the lemon drizzle and it's gone down a storm, so here's my recipe:
Ingredients for the cake:
225g soft butter
150g honey
4 medium eggs
225g Gluten Free self raising flour
Juice of 1 lemon
Method:
Pre-heat your oven to gas mark 4.
Put your butter, honey and eggs into a large bowl, or mixer and beat well.
Add the GF SR flour and continue to beat.
Add the juice of 1 lemon, beat and then pour the mixture into a greased and lined cake tin.
Bake for approximately 45 mins or until a skewer comes out clean and your cake is brown and coming away from the edges of the tin.
Ingredients for lemon drizzle:
Juice of 1 lemon
50g xylitol
Method:
When your cake has 5 mins left to cook, put the juice of 1 lemon and the xylitol into a saucepan and heat until the xylitol has dissolved.
Take your cake out of the oven, prick all over with a skewer and pour the hot drizzle over your cake.
Allow to cool for about 10 mins in the tin, then turn out onto a wire rack.
Enjoy!
