Keto Strawberry Cake
This low carb strawberry cake is light and fluffy. It is easy to make with just one bowl and a whisk.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup (4 oz) unsalted butter, melted
- 1/2 cup (100 grams) granular erythritol
- 5 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 2 cups (183 grams) superfine almond flour
- 1/4 cup (26 grams) coconut flour
- 1 tbsp baking powder , aluminum free
- 1/2 cup (80 grams) chopped fresh strawberries, (about 4-5 small strawberries)
Strawberry GLAZE
- 1/2 tbsp freeze dried strawberry powder
- 1 tbsp heavy cream, see notes for substitutes
- 4 tbsp powdered erythritol or more as needed
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F. Line an 8 x 4 inch loaf pan with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, add butter and erythritol. Whisk until evenly combined. Add eggs, one at a time, whisking after each addition.
- Add in vanilla. Whisk until evenly combined.
- Add in almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder. Whisk until evenly mixed. Your batter should be thick.
- Stir in chopped strawberries until just mixed and evenly spread out into the batter.
- Pour batter into prepared pan.
- Bake cake in the middle of your oven for about 40-45 minutes or until toothpick inserted comes out clean. Let cake cool before drizzling with glaze.
- To make the strawberry glaze, whisk together all ingredients. If the glaze is too thin, add more powdered erythritol until it reaches your desired thickness. Drizzle over the cake.
Notes
- The glaze recipe is just enough for a little drizzle over the cake. If you wish to cover more of the cake, you can double or triple the recipe.
- For the freeze dried strawberry powder, put a few freeze dried strawberry slices into a food processor or blender and process until it is a fine powder.
- If you don't have freeze dried strawberries, you can make a vanilla glaze by leaving out the strawberry powder and adding 1/2 tsp vanilla.
- Heavy cream gives this glaze a richer flavor but you can also use milk or your favorite milk substitute. If you are using milk, it is thinner than heavy cream so you may not need as much.
- Make sure to use blanched superfine almond flour. I used Kirkland Signature superfine almond flour.*
- I used So Nourished erythritol sweetener granular* and So Nourished powdered erythritol*
