This butter cake is the ultimate treat for those following a keto lifestyle. It's rich, full of flavour, and contains virtually no sugar thanks to the natural sweetener erythritol.
Ingredients:
-
250 g almond flour
-
200 g unsalted butter (at room temperature)
-
150 g Erythritol
-
1 egg (size L)
-
A pinch of salt
-
Optional: 1 tsp vanilla extract and some flaked almonds for the top
Preparation:
-
Preheat the oven to 170°C and grease a butter cake tin (20-22 cm).
-
Mix the almond flour, erythritol, and salt in a bowl.
-
Add the softened butter and half an egg (reserve the other half to brush the top).
-
Knead into a firm dough and press evenly into the tin.
-
Brush the top with the remaining egg and use a fork to create the characteristic criss-cross pattern.
-
Bake the butter cake for 25-30 minutes until golden brown. Note: Let the cake cool completely in the tin before slicing; keto baked goods only firm up when cold.
