Ingredients:
* Cake:
* 1 ¾ cup almond flour
* ⅓ cup coconut flour
* 2 tsp baking powder
* ½ tsp salt
* ¾ cup unsalted butter, softened
* ¼ cup monk fruit sweetener or erythritol
* 4 large eggs
* ¼ cup sour cream
* 1 tsp vanilla extract
* 1 cup fresh strawberries, sliced
* Frosting:
* 5 oz. cream cheese, softened
* 5 tbsp unsalted butter, softened
* 1 cup powdered sweetener (keto-friendly)
* ¼ cup sugar-free honey or maple syrup (optional)
* 1 tsp vanilla extract
* Few drops red food coloring (optional)
Instructions:
1. Preheat the oven to 325°F (165°C). Grease and flour an 8-inch springform pan.
2. Whisk dry ingredients: In a bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
3. Cream butter and sweetener: In another bowl, cream butter and sweetener until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each.
4. Mix wet and dry ingredients: Stir in sour cream and vanilla extract. Gradually add dry ingredients, mixing until just combined.
5. Fold in strawberries: Gently fold in half the sliced strawberries.
6. Bake the cake: Pour batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top. Bake for 33-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
7. Cool and assemble: Let the cake cool completely in the pan on a wire rack. Once cool, remove the sides of the springform pan.
8. Make the frosting: In a bowl, cream together softened cream cheese and butter until smooth. Add powdered sweetener, honey/maple syrup (if using), and vanilla extract. Beat until light and fluffy. Add red food coloring, if desired.
9. Frost and decorate: Frost the cooled cake top and sides. Garnish with remaining sliced strawberries and enjoy!
Tips:
* For extra strawberry flavor, substitute ¼ cup of the milk in the frosting with strawberry puree.
* Top with chopped nuts or sugar-free chocolate chips for added texture.
