Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). In a bowl, whisk 1 3/4 cups almond flour, 1/2 tsp baking soda, and 1/4 tsp salt until combined.
  2. Step 2: In a separate bowl, beat 3 large eggs, 1/3 cup unsweetened almond milk, 1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract, and 1/2 cup erythritol until smooth. Fold dry ingredients into wet mixture gently until batter forms.
  3. Step 3: Pour batter into a lined 8-inch cake pan and bake for 30-32 minutes until golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool completely.
  4. Step 4: Whip 1 1/4 cups heavy cream with 1 1/2 tbsp powdered erythritol until stiff peaks form. In another bowl, beat 3 oz softened cream cheese until smooth and fold into whipped cream gently.
  5. Step 5: Slice cake horizontally into two layers. Spread half the cream cheese mixture on the bottom layer, top with 3/4 cup fresh blueberries, then place the top cake layer and repeat with remaining cream and blueberries.
  6. Step 6: Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving for the cream to set and flavors to blend.

Can I substitute ingredients in Blueberry and Cream Layered Keto Cake?

How do I scale Blueberry and Cream Layered Keto Cake for a different number of people?

The recipe is written for 8 servings. Multiply each ingredient by (your serving target / 8). Cook time stays roughly the same up to 2x; for 3-4x batches, switch from a skillet to a sheet pan or stockpot so the food isn't crowded — overcrowding steams instead of browns.
