Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Almond flour
- 0.25 cup Coconut flour
- 0.75 cup Erythritol sweetener
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, softened
- 4 units Large eggs
- 0.25 cup Fresh lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon Lemon zest
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 cup Heavy cream
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan and line it with parchment paper, allowing the edges to hang over for easy removal.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the almond flour, coconut flour, erythritol, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter with an electric mixer until creamy and smooth.
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
Stir in the lemon juice, lemon zest, vanilla extract, and heavy cream until well combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing on low speed until just combined. Avoid overmixing to prevent a dense texture.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
Allow the pound cake to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve the Keto Lemon Pound Cake as-is or garnish with a dusting of additional erythritol or a keto-friendly glaze for an extra touch of sweetness.
