Strawberry Pineapple Pound Cake

Keto Strawberry Pineapple Pound Cake is a refreshing take on a traditional dessert. It gives you a vibrant and filling delight without the added carbohydrates by fusing the tropical flavor of pineapple extract with the delicious sweetness of strawberries. We use almond flour and coconut flour to make the base, giving it a dense, velvety texture akin to conventional pound cake but completely gluten-free and keto-friendly. We keep the crumbs moist and rich with a hint of sour cream, while Erythritol provides the ideal amount of sweetness without raising blood sugar levels. Each slice of this keto Strawberry Pineapple Pound Cake has a lovely combination of fruit flavor and buttery cake.

INGREDIENT NOTES:

ALMOND FLOUR:

• The primary low-carb ingredient that keeps the pound cake dense and moist is almond flour. It offers a subtle nutty flavor while simulating ordinary flour.

COCONUT FLOUR:

• We balance the Almond flour with coconut flour, which also aids in absorbing excess moisture from the dough. It is quite absorbent, so a little goes a long way. It adds no carbohydrates and lightens the cake texture.

BAKING POWDER:

• Baking powder gives the pound cake structure and a lovely texture by aiding in its rise. It guarantees that the cake won’t be overly dense. Always use a fresh batch for optimal results.

SOUR CREAM:

• It prevents the batter from becoming too heavy and adds extra softness.

SALT:

• Salt improves the natural sweet taste of the pineapple extract & strawberries. It intensifies flavors without being obvious.

UNSALTED BUTTER:

• Unsalted butter creates a soft crumb and provides moisture & indulgence. It makes the cake taste like traditional buttery pound cake. Use of soft butter ensures smooth mixing.

ERYTHRITOL POWDER:

• Erythritol provide sweet taste without the carbohydrates which make it keto. It doesn’t increase blood sugar levels and bakes beautifully. Use Erythritol powder for a smooth texture.

EGGS:

• Eggs give the mixture shape and binding power. They also give the pound cake moisture and richness. Eggs at room temperature incorporate into the batter more uniformly.

SOUR CREAM

• The cake remains soft, creamy, and moist because of the sour cream. It adds a little sharpness to counterbalance the sweetness. The pound cake gains richness from its fat content.

PINEAPPLE EXTRACT:

• Pineapple extract adds a tropical, delicious flavor without the carbohydrates of actual pineapple. You only need a teaspoon because it’s very potent. Strawberries go well with it.

VANILLA EXTRACT:

• Vanilla extract boosts overall flavor and goes well with strawberries and pineapple. It adds warmth and balances the sweetness. Always select pure extract for optimal flavor.

STRAWBERRIES:

• The cake receives natural sweetness and color boosts from the strawberries. They are keto-friendly when we use sparingly. Chop them into little pieces to distribute them equally throughout the batter.
