Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups almond flour
  • 1/2 cup keto-friendly sweetener (such as erythritol or monk fruit sweetener)

Wet Ingredients

  • 4 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it’s ready when the batter is mixed.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the almond flour and keto-friendly sweetener. Stir well to evenly distribute the ingredients.
  3. Combine Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the eggs and melted butter until smooth and fully blended.
  4. Make the Batter: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix thoroughly until you achieve a smooth, consistent batter.
  5. Prepare Baking Pan: Grease an 8-inch round cake pan with butter or line it with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
  6. Bake the Cake: Pour the batter into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes or until the cake is golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  7. Cool and Serve: Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • Make sure to use unsweetened almond flour for the best texture.
  • You can substitute butter with coconut oil for a dairy-free version.
  • Adjust the baking time slightly based on your oven’s performance.
  • Optionally, add vanilla extract or almond extract for enhanced flavor.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
