Keto Lemon Pound Cake

butter

eggs (large, separated, room temperature)

tbsp lemon juice (roughly 2 lemons)

tbsp lemon zest (zest of 2 lemons)

coconut flour

tsp baking powder

salt

coconut butter

coconut oil

tsp vanilla extract

lemon zest and lemon slices

Preheat the oven to 350F / 175C / 155fan. Generously grease a bundt tin with butter. If using a rectangular loaf pan or springform, line the bottom and sides with baking / parchment paper.

Melt the butter in a saucepan or microwave until just warm. Allow to cool for a couple of minutes and add the egg yolks. Whisk with a balloon whisk or with an electric mixer to combine. Then whisk through the yoghurt and lemon juice.

Place all the dry ingredients in a clean mixing bowl and stir to combine. Also add in the lemon zest, reserving 1 tsp for decorating the cake later.

Add the wet ingredients to the dry and fold together with a spatula or blend with an electric mixer.

Whisk the egg whites in a clean mixing bowl using an electric mixer until stiff peaks form.

Fold the egg whites through the batter until smooth using a spatula (no electric blenders here!). Don’t over-mix or you will deflate the eggs.

Spoon the batter into the bundt tin and level with a spatula.

Bake in the oven for about 45 - 50 minutes until golden and you can insert and remove a skewer without crumbs sticking. Mine took 48 minutes. Run a sharp knife around the edge of the tin. DO NOT REMOVE FROM THE TIN UNTIL FULLY COOLED.

Melt the coconut butter and oil using the bain marie method - in a glass proof bowl over a pan of simmering water. Remove from the heat and stir through the vanilla extract. Remove the lemon cake from the mould and drizzle over the coconut butter. Option to top with lemon zest and slices for decoration.

Keto Lemon Pound  Cake | The Best Keto Cake

eggs

butter (112 grams), softened

(90 grams) cream cheese

(100 grams) Granular Swerve

(220 grams) almond flour

(56 grams) coconut flour

baking powder

lemon juice

lemon zest

(125 grams) Confectioners Swerve

cream cheese

Preheat your oven to 350°F (177°C) and line a 9x5 inch loaf pan with parchment paper.

In a large bowl, combine the almond and coconut flour with the baking powder and mix until combined. 

In a separate bowl, combine the cream cheese, butter, and Granular Swerve with a hand mixer. Add your eggs one at a time while mixing until everything is combined.

Then add the lemon juice, flour mixture, and lemon zest and mix on the lowest setting to combine. 

Pour the batter into your loaf pan and bake for 45-60 minutes or until the center is firm and the edges are golden brown. 

Check the cake at about the 30-minute mark, and again at 40 minutes. If the top of the cake is becoming too brown, cover it with tin foil.

Let the cake cool for 10 minutes in the pan. Then lift the parchment paper to remove the cake from the pan and transfer the cake to a wire rack to finish cooling.  

While your cake is cooling, prepare the glaze icing. Mix the Confectioners Swerve, cream cheese, and lemon juice in a bowl.  

Spread the glaze evenly on top of the cooled cake and let it drip down the sides.
