Sprouted Spelt Lemon Cake
March seemed to be a popular birthday month for a lot of our team, and after this cake was tried for the first birthday it became a popular choice for all subsequent ones. We had a lot of citrus still on hand from a trip to California, so it was a fitting cake to make. It is the perfect cake for spring and the presentation gives the illusion that you spent all afternoon slaving away in the kitchen!

2 cups One Degree Organics Sprouted Spelt Flour
3/4 cup coconut palm sugar
2 tsp aluminum-free double-acting baking powder
1/2 tsp salt

Icing:
1 can chilled coconut milk, (use thickened top portion)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease a bundt pan.
In a medium bowl combine Sprouted Spelt Flour, coconut palm sugar, baking powder and salt. Set aside.
