This keto lemon cake recipe comes together with pretty basic low carb pantry staples, plus a few common items from the grocery store:
LOW CARB LEMON CAKE INGREDIENTS
- Butter – Use this grass-fed butter for the best flavor and quality, but any unsalted kind will work. Be sure to soften the butter!
- Besti Monk Fruit Allulose Blend – A must for keto cakes, it makes them super moist and not dry! And of course, zero net carbs, sugar, or aftertaste.
- Eggs – Use large eggs, not medium or jumbo.
- Sour cream – Full-fat sour cream is best for keto and the best cake texture, but low-fat works too if that’s what you have.
- Lemons – Look for a bright lemon that has a slight give to it when pressed.
- Vanilla – Look for a high-quality extract to make sure there aren’t any other added sugars.
- Wholesome Yum Blanched Almond Flour – The superfine, blanched texture of my brand makes the lemon cake fluffy and not dense.
- Baking powder – Make sure it’s fresh to avoid a dense cake.
- Sea salt
