Keto Creamy Custard Cake

This Keto Creamy Custard Cake is a very delicious, decadent dessert, and it is also low in carbs. This dessert has a smooth and velvety custard base and a light, airy top. This dessert is ideal for anyone on a ketogenic or gluten-free diet because it features low-carb components like almond milk, coconut flour, and Erythritol. This cake has a special texture that makes this dessert different and appealing. As the batter bakes, it separates into different layers and forms a soft sponge top & creamy custard underneath. This cake has a subtle vanilla flavor and it is mildly sweet, & is filling without a strong taste. We can have this Keto Creamy Custard Cake without anything, or we can add some whipped cream and fresh berries to enhance the taste.
