Ingredients
- 4 eggs large, room temperature
- ½ cup / 120g sour cream room temperature
- ½ cup / 120g butter must be very soft
- ¼ cup / 4 tbsp lemon juice I used 1 ½ lemons
- zest of 1 lemon
- 2 cup / 200g almond flour Use 2 tablespoons less for super-fine almond flour
- 2 teaspoon baking powder
- ⅓ cup / 40g powdered erythritol or more, to taste.
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 175 Celsius / 350 Fahrenheit.
- Beat the eggs until frothy. Add the sour cream and softened butter and blend with a food processor or electric mixer until combined.
- Add lemon juice, the grated zest of 1 lemon and ⅓ cup powdered erythritol or powdered sugar substitute of your choice. Blend.
- Lastly, add the almond flour and baking powder and mix until you have a smooth batter. Adjust sweetener to taste, adding more if required.
- Line a 9x6 inch pan with parchment paper and fill in the batter.
- Bake in the middles shelf of the oven for 35-40 minutes until the top is lightly browned and a skewer inserted comes out clean.
- Leave to cool completely before cutting or removing from the pan. Almond flour cakes are fragile when hot, but they firm up as they cool down.
Notes
- 5g net carbs per bar. Makes 8 bars.
- For me, 1 ½ lemons yielded ¼ cup lemon juice. For extra zing, you could increase the amount of lemon juice by up to 2 additional tablespoons.
- Wait until the cake is COMPLETELY cooled before dusting with powdered sweetener. If it's still warm, the erythritol melts into an unsightly sludge.
- Please see the post for topping ideas, from sugar-free lemon drizzle to lemon curd frosting.
- Store in the fridge for up to 5 days or freeze pre-sliced for up to 3 months.
