I love finding Keto and low-carb desserts I can eat without guilt. Often I’ve tried recipes only to make them and have them be dry, crumbly, or not taste like a dessert at all. This Keto Pound Cake is Heaven. It’s so soft and creamy and is delicious regardless of whether or not you’re doing Keto.

I guarantee if you brought this to a get-together, or served it to people and didn’t tell them it was Keto or low-carb, they would never know. It’s that good.

CAN I SUB COCONUT FLOUR FOR THE ALMOND FLOUR?

No. These two are not interchangeable. I always have people ask me this for recipes, so I’m answering the question before you even have a chance to ask. If you only have coconut flour, get almond flour too because it makes so many amazing recipes and I use it often.

VARIATIONS

This recipe makes 8 very generous servings. You can make it in a loaf pan, but you may need two loaf pans. You can use any leftovers for strawberry or raspberry shortcake with lots of whipped cream.

If you want some pizzazz added to the recipe, you can also vary flavors by using lemon extract and 1 tablespoon of lemon rind for lemon pound cake, add some cinnamon and nutmeg for spice cake, and the list goes on. Think of this Keto Pound Cake recipe as not just a pound cake, but also as a base cake recipe you can change to suit your needs. It can be quite versatile.
