Ingredients

Dry Ingredients:

Wet Ingredients:

  • 2 large eggs room temperature
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
  • 4 tablespoons crème fraîche or sour cream
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract sugar-free
  • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon zest

Mix-Ins:

  • ½ cup fresh blueberries

For Topping:

Instructions

  • Prepare Your Oven and Pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×5 loaf pan or 6-cup bundt pan with cooking spray or coconut oil. Line with parchment paper for easy removal.
  • Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together almond flour, baking powder, salt, and sweetener.
  • Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk eggs, melted butter, crème fraîche, vanilla extract, and lemon zest until smooth.
  • Make the Cake Batter: Slowly add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until fully incorporated. Fold in the fresh blueberries gently to avoid breaking them.
  • Bake: Pour the cake batter into the prepared pan. Tap to release air bubbles. Bake for 40–50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Cover the top of the cake with aluminum foil if it browns too quickly.
  • Cool and Decorate: Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack. Once completely cool, frost with Keto Royal Icing Buttercream.

Notes

Tips for a Light and Moist Cake
  • Use room-temperature eggs and butter for better mixing and fluffier texture.
  • Beat the wet ingredients with an electric mixer or stand mixer until smooth and creamy.
  • Don’t overmix the batter—it can make the cake dense.
  • Use high-quality almond flour and crème fraîche for richness and moisture.
  • Toss the blueberries in almond flour to prevent them from sinking or releasing too much juice.
  • Check for doneness early. Overbaking can dry out the cake.
Storage Tips
  • Room Temperature: Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
  • Refrigerator: Keeps fresh for up to a week.
  • Freezer: Wrap slices individually in parchment paper and store for up to 3 months. Defrost at room temperature before serving.
