Then grease the bottom and sides of a springform pan. Pour the cake batter into the pan and use a spoon to spread the batter evenly. Sprinkle the crumble mixture on top of the cake batter.

“This Keto Pumpkin Spice Coffee Cake is a Super Moist Pumpkin Cake that’s topped with a Delicious Pumpkin Spice Streusel Topping. It’s the Perfect Homemade Low Carb Sweet Treat to have with your Morning Coffee or to Serve as Dessert!”

INGREDIENTS

For the Coffee Cake:

6 Eggs

3/4 Cup Pumpkin Puree

1/2 Cup Melted Butter

3/4 Cup Coconut Flour

1/2 Cup Brown Sugar Substitute (swerve)

3/4 Tsp Cinnamon

1/2 Tsp Nutmeg

1/8 Tsp Ginger

1 Tsp Vanilla

1 Tsp Baking Powder

For the Topping:

1/3 Cup Coconut Flour

1/4 Cup Brown Sugar Substitute (swerve)

1/4 Cup Butter (cold)

1/2 Tsp Cinnamon

1/8 Tsp Nutmeg

1/8 Tsp Ginger

For the Frosting:

2 Tbsp Cream Cheese

1/4 Cup Heavy Cream

2 Tbsp Powdered Sweetener (Swerve)

DIRECTIONS

1. Preheat oven to 325 F. In a small mixing bowl, mix the cold butter with the coconut flour, brown sugar swerve, cinnamon, nutmeg and ginger. (I found squishing the butter between my fingers worked best) Once mixed though, set aside until later.

2. In a blender, mix the eggs, pumpkin puree and melted butter until very well blended. Then, use a large mixing bowl to mix the coconut flour, sweetener, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger and baking powder. Add in the egg and pumpkin mixture and mix until fully combined.

3. Grease the bottom and sides of a springform pan with butter, then pour the cake batter into the pan. Use a spoon to spread the batter evenly. Sprinkle the crumble mixture on top of the cake batter. Then bake for 32 – 35 minutes or until a tooth pic comes out of the centre clean.

4. Use a mixer to mix the cream cheese, heavy cream and sweetener. Mix until smooth, then drizzle it over the cooled coffee cake.

This recipe for Keto Pumpkin Spice Coffee Cake makes 12 servings.

Recipe Notes:

– Pre made pumpkin spice can be used instead of the cinnamon, ginger and nutmeg.

– To make this cake I used a 9″ springform pan but a 7″ or 8″ pan would work if needed. A round or square cake pan could be used instead but make sure to grease it a little extra or line it with parchment paper.

– I used a ziplock bag to drizzle the icing. If you’re using a spoon, you might need to make it slightly runnier. Add an extra tbsp or two of heavy cream if needed.

– Granulated or powdered sweetener can be used in place of the brown sugar swerve if needed.

– Use Pumpkin Puree and not Canned Pumpkin Pie Filling. The pie filling contains wheat flour.

Keto Blueberry Pecan Coffee Cake

This Keto Blueberry Pecan Coffee Cake has a moist cake bottom that’s topped with Juicy Blueberries and a delicious Buttery Pecan Streusel Topping. It’s the perfect Keto Cake for Breakfast or Brunch on Mother’s Day, Showers or any other Special Occasions.

To make this Keto Blueberry Pecan Coffee Cake you use a small mixing bowl to mix the cold butter with the coconut flour, swerve and cinnamon. I found squishing the butter between my fingers worked best. Once your dough is a nice cookie dough consistency, add in the pecans.

Mix until the nuts are mixed though, then set aside until later. Then use a blender to mix the eggs and sour cream until very well blended. Add the almond flour, 2/3 of a cup of the coconut flour, sweetener, vanilla and baking powder to the blender. Blend until fully combined. Add the extra 2 tbsp of coconut flour,( if needed) Blend until combined. The batter should be thick. Grease the bottom and sides of a springform pan with butter, then pour the cake batter into the pan. Use a spoon to spread the batter evenly in the pan. Pour the blueberries evenly on top of the cake batter, then gently press them down into the batter.

Crumble the pecan cookie dough mixture on top of the blueberries. Then bake for 22 – 24 minutes or until a tooth pic comes out of the centre clean. Use a mixer to mix the cream cheese, heavy cream and sweetener. Mix until smooth, then drizzle over the slightly cooled coffee cake.

INGREDIENTS

6 Eggs

1/2 Cup Sour Cream

1/3 Cup Almond Flour

2/3 Cup + 2 Tbsp Coconut Flour

1/4 Cup Powdered Sweetener (Swerve)

1 Tsp Vanilla

1 Tsp Baking Powder

For the Topping:

1 Cup Blueberries

1/3 Cup Coconut Flour

3 Tbsp Powdered Sweetener (Swerve)

1/4 Cup Butter (cold)

1/2 Tsp Cinnamon

1/2 Cup Pecans

For the Frosting:

2 Tbsp Cream Cheese

1/4 Cup Heavy Cream

2 Tbsp Powdered Sweetener (Swerve)

DIRECTIONS

1. Preheat oven to 325 F. In a small mixing bowl, mix the cold butter with the coconut flour, swerve and cinnamon. (I found squishing the butter between my fingers worked best) Once your dough is a nice cookie dough consistency, break up and add in the pecans. Mix until the nuts are mixed though, then set aside until later.

2. In a blender, mix the eggs and sour cream until very well blended. Add the almond flour, 2/ 3 of a cup of the coconut flour, sweetener, vanilla and baking powder to the blender. Blend until fully combined. Add the extra 2 tbsp of coconut flour,( if needed) Blend until combined. The batter should be thick.

3. Grease the bottom and sides of a springform pan with butter, then pour the cake batter into the pan. Use a spoon to spread the batter evenly in the pan.

This recipe for Keto Blueberry Pecan Coffee Cake makes 12 servings.

Recipe Notes:

– Blueberries can be swapped out for Strawberries or Raspberries if desired. You can also swap out the pecans for walnuts or skip the nuts altogether.

– When making the buttery streusel topping, it’s important try to keep the butter as cold as possible. Don’t over mix the butter and flour with your hands or the butter will get too soft. Mix it just until it clumps together.

– I use a 9″ springform pan but an7″ or 8″ pan would also work well. You could also use a round or square cake pan instead but be sure to grease it extra or line it with parchment paper.

– I used a ziplock bag to drizzle the icing. If you’re using a spoon, you might need to make it slightly runnier. Add an extra tbsp or two of heavy cream if needed.

– Fresh or Frozen Blueberries can be used.

“These Easy to make Gluten Free & Keto Vanilla Cake Pops are Delicious Little Balls of Moist Vanilla Cake, Dipped in Chocolate. They’re made from scratch, with no Cake Mix or Canned Frosting. It’s the perfect recipe to make with your kids or family.”

Ingredients

For the Cake:

6 Eggs

1/2 Cup Cream Cheese

1/3 Cup Vanilla Whey Protein Powder (Low Carb)

1/3 Cup + 3 Tbsp Coconut Flour

1 Tbsp Powdered Sweetener (Swerve)

1 Tsp Vanilla

1 Tsp Baking Powder

For the Frosting:

3 Tbsp Cream Cheese

3 Tbsp Heavy Cream

1 Tbsp Powdered Sweetener (Swerve)

For the Coating:

1 1/2 Cups Low Carb Chocolate (Lily’s)

1 1/2 Tbsp Coconut Oil

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 325 F. In a blender, mix the eggs and cream cheese until very well blended. Add the protein powder, coconut flour, vanilla and baking powder to the blender. Blend until fully combined.

2. Grease the bottom and sides of a cake pan with butter, then pour the cake batter into the pan. Use a spoon to spread the batter evenly in the pan. Then bake for 18 – 20 minutes or until a tooth pic comes out clean. Set aside to cool.

3. In a small bowl mix the cream cheese, heavy cream and sweetener. Then crumble half of the cooled cake into a large mixing bowl. Make sure the cake is completely crumbled. Add 2 Tbsp the frosting to the crumbled cake and mix until completely combined.

4. Cover a plate or tray with parchment paper. Then make small 2 Tbsp balls out of the cake mixture. (Firmly Press into a ball shape then gently press into a nice round shape with your fingers. If they crack, gently press back together.) Place the balls onto the covered plate. Then go back and mix the second half of the cake the same way. Place the cake balls in the freezer for 10 -15 minutes or in the fridge for an hour.

5. Melt the low carb chocolate with the coconut oil. Then gently make holes in the cake pop with the stick or a tooth pick. Dip the tip of the stick in the chocolate then poke them into the cake pops. Place in the fridge for a few minutes or until the chocolate sets.

6. Dip the cake pops in the chocolate and place it back on the parchment paper to set, or if you have a piece of styrofoam you can place the cake pops upright poked into the styrofoam. Placing the finished cake pops in the fridge for a few minutes will help the set faster.

Recipe Notes:

– Go Easy on The Frosting. To get a nice cake like texture you don’t want the balls to be too wet. Using only a small amount of frosting will help keep the proper texture.

– They need to be cold but not frozen (or too cold). The cake pops can expand and crack when dipped in the hot chocolate, if they’re too cold. 10 -15 minutes in the freezer should be more than enough time.

– Let the Chocolate cool slightly before dipping the cake pops. Just as they crack when the balls are too cold, they can also expand and crack if your chocolate is too hot. Letting it sit for a few minutes first will help.

– Using a deep narrow cup for dipping the cake pops in the chocolate will help get the cake pops deep enough to submerge them completely.

– Use a styrofoam holder or a box with holes poked in it, to hold the cake pops upright. This will help to keep a nice round shape. They can also be placed upside down on a parchment paper lined plate if needed.

– Using a small ice cream scoop to scoop out the cake balls will help keep equal portions.

– If the cake pops crack while rolling just gently press them back together with your fingers.

– The cake can be made ahead and saved until your ready to make the cake pops. You can even make the undipped cake pops a day or two ahead of time, then dip them in the chocolate before serving.

– You can usually find cake pop sticks at any cake supply or craft store. If you can’t find any you can replace the stick with a skewer or just make cake balls instead of cake pops.

– Keep the Keto Cake Pops in the fridge until ready to serve.

Cherry Cheesecake

March 30, 2014 by officially gluten free 9 Comments

Cherry Cheesecake

This light and creamy, Gluten Free Cherry Cheesecake is made with a flaky Chocolate Shortbread Cookie Crust. Try it with Cherries or Blueberries or just leave it plain, either way it’s sure to please.

Ingredients

For the Cheese Cake –

1 Package (8 oz.) Cream Cheese

1 Can Sweetened Condensed Milk

1/3 Cup Lemon Juice

1 Cup Whipping Cream

2 Tbsp Icing Sugar

1 Can Cherry Pie Filling

For the Crust –

3/4 Cup Butter

1 Cup Rice Flour

1/2 Cup Icing Sugar

1/2 Cup Cocoa Powder

Directions

1. In a large mixing bowl, cut the butter into small pieces.

2. Add the rice flour, icing sugar and cocoa powder to butter.

3. Mix together with your hands. The dough will look too dry at first but don’t add anything to it. Just keep mixing it, squishing the flour and and butter between your fingers. It will take 5 – 10 minutes but a dark chocolaty dough ball will form.

4. Wrap the dough ball with plastic wrap and put in the fridge for 1 hour or overnight.

5. On a lightly (rice) floured surface roll out the dough, into the shape of your pan. It may seem crumbly at first but just keep pressing it with your fingers.

6. Place the dough into the bottom of your springform pan or a cake pan lined with tin foil or parchment paper.

7. Return to refrigerator for another 15-20 minutes.

8. Pre heat oven to 300 F. Bake for 20-25 minutes. Then leave it in the pan and let it cool completely.

9. In a large bowl whip the cream cheese, until it’s light and fluffy. Then whip in the sweetened condensed milk and lemon juice. In a separate bowl whip the whipping cream and icing sugar until firm. Fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture, until well combined.

10. Pour the mixture over the shortbread and smooth out with a spoon. Place into the refrigerator for 2- 3 hours. Pour the cherry pie filling over the cake right before serving.
