Almond Flour Pound Cake
1 cup butter
1 cup Splenda
5 eggs
2 cups almond flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon lemon extract
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Cream butter and splenda well. Add eggs, one at a time, beating after each. Mix flour with baking powder and add to egg mixture a little at a time while beating. Add lemon & vanilla extracts. Pour into greased 9" cake pan and bake at 350 for 50-55 minutes.
I've got the whole cake as 47 carbs. I can easily get 8 large slices from a 9" cake, which puts it at 5.8 carbs each. If you're careful you can get 12 slices for only 3.9 carbs a slice! (I had a hard time eating a whole slice so I cut it into the 12 slices)
* add some cocoa to the recipe & eliminate the lemon extract for chocolate cake
** add banana extract instead of lemon and a few chopped nuts...it made
a great banana nut cake.
