Ingredients
Cake Ingredients
- 1½ cups almond flour
- ½ cup powdered erythritol or monk fruit sweetener
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 3 large eggs
- ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
- ½ cup heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Optional Topping
- Powdered keto sweetener for dusting
- Sugar-free whipped cream
Why these ingredients work:
Almond flour keeps the cake moist and low-carb, while heavy cream and butter add richness. Powdered sweetener blends smoothly, creating a soft, bakery-style crumb without sugar.
Ingredient Notes
Almond flour is essential for structure and moisture, so avoid substituting coconut flour without adjustments. Powdered sweetener dissolves better than granulated, preventing a gritty texture. Heavy cream adds tenderness and depth, while vanilla brings warmth and balance. Using room-temperature eggs helps the batter mix smoothly and bake evenly.
Step-by-Step Instructions
Start by preheating your oven and lightly greasing your cake pan. This ensures the cake releases easily and bakes evenly.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together almond flour, powdered sweetener, baking powder, and salt until well combined. This helps distribute the leavening evenly for a fluffy texture.
In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs until smooth. Add melted butter, heavy cream, and vanilla extract, stirring until the mixture looks creamy and glossy.
Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring gently until a smooth batter forms. The batter should be thick yet pourable, with a rich, velvety consistency.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top with a spatula. Bake until the cake is lightly golden on top and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and allow the cake to cool slightly. As it cools, the texture settles into a soft, tender crumb that slices beautifully.
Pro Tips and Variations
For a cozy twist, add a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg to the batter. A splash of almond extract adds bakery-style flavor. If you want a lemon version, add lemon zest for brightness. Serve warm for a comforting dessert or chilled for a firmer texture. This cake also works well as a base for keto frosting or whipped cream layers.
Serving Suggestions
Serve Keto Catch A Husband Cake with a dollop of sugar-free whipped cream, fresh berries, or a drizzle of keto caramel sauce. It pairs wonderfully with coffee or tea and makes a lovely dessert for gatherings, holidays, or casual weeknight treats.
Storage Information
