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

Directions

Step 1

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.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, whisk together the almond flour, coconut flour, erythritol, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter with an electric mixer until creamy and smooth.

Step 4

Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.

Step 5

Stir in the lemon juice, lemon zest, vanilla extract, and heavy cream until well combined.

Step 6

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing on low speed until just combined. Avoid overmixing to prevent a dense texture.

Step 7

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.

Step 9

Allow the pound cake to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 10

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.
