Almond Flour Pound Cake

Adding the eggs to the creamed butter and allulose one at a time, fully incorporating each before adding the next, is what keeps the batter from splitting into a curdled, greasy-looking mess.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup dairy-free butter, softened
  • 1 cup allulose
  • 5 eggs, room temperature
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp almond extract
  • 2.5 cups almond flour
  • 1/2 cup coconut flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Method

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 325°F and grease and line a loaf pan.

  2. 2

    Cream dairy-free butter and allulose together until pale and fluffy, about 4 minutes.

  3. 3

    Add the eggs one at a time, beating well and letting each fully incorporate before adding the next — rushing this step by dumping all the eggs in at once is what causes the fat and liquid to split apart into a curdled, greasy-looking batter instead of staying smooth and emulsified. Beat in vanilla and almond extract.

  4. 4

    Whisk almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, and salt together, then fold into the wet mixture until just combined.

  5. 5

    Pour into the prepared loaf pan and bake 50-55 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean, tenting with foil after 30 minutes if the top is browning too quickly. Cool completely before slicing.
