Cut the lemon, and juice it.
In a liquid measuring cup, put the juice of the lemon plus enough milk substitute to equal one cup.
Combine the flour, starches, xanthan gum, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a small bowl.
In the bowl of your mixer, beat the sugar, oil and eggs on medium-high for about one minute.
Add the lemon extract and mix.
Add the flour mix and liquid alternately beginning and ending with the flour mix. Add about ¼ at a time and mix on medium speed in between each addition.
Stir in the lemon zest.
Pour the batter into a well greased bundt pan.

Cool in the pan for 5 - 10 minutes. Make sure the edges of the cake are loose, then turn it onto a rack to finish cooling.
