KETO LEMON POPPY SEED CAKE

Spread the love

lemon poppy seed cake

I finally found poppy seeds at my regular baking ingredient shop and immediately thought of making lemon poppy seed cake. I love the look of the poppy seeds in the cake and the crunchy texture when I bite into them. This cake is so flavorful, refreshing and delicious on its own but when top with the lemon cheesecake frosting, it is another whole new level – super yummy

Instructions

  • In the video, I used a 6 inch (15 cm) pan greased and lined with parchment paper.
  • Transfer the batter into the pan and spread evenly.
  • Bake for 40 minutes or until a wooden skewer comes out clean.
  • Once ready, remove the cake from pan and cool completely on a wire rack before frosting.

lemon cream cheese frosting

  • In a bowl, add the butter, cream cheese and whisk until smooth and creamy.
  • Add the lemon juice and whisk to combine.
  • Add the powdered sweetener and whisk until well combined.
  • If the consistency is too runny or soft, you can add either more cream cheese or powdered sweetener.
  • Chill until ready for use.
  • When the cake is ready, spread the frosting evenly on the top of the cake. You can also frost the sides if you have leftover frosting.
  • Sprinkle with some poppy seeds (Optional).
