Keto Spice Cake
with Browned Butter Cream Cheese Frosting

Exactly once a year I crave spice cake.

It's not my go-to, like chocolate, caramel or peanut butter, but something happens when the Christmas tree comes out my brain wants spice cake.

The cake is very simple to make, based of keto yellow cake with the addition of spices, carrots, and pecans if you like.

Many traditional spice cakes are topped with cream cheese frosting, but the addition of browned butter really rounds out the flavor and gives it a richer, nuttier taste.

This cake is perfect for ending a family meal during the cooler months.

How To Make Keto Spice Cake

Preheat oven to 350.  Grease 9×9 pan and set aside.

In a clean, cooled bowl, whip the Heavy Cream until it forms stiff peaks.

Add in the eggs, egg yolks, Sweetener, Stevia Glycerite, Almond Flour, Coconut Flour, Baking Powder, Salt, Cinnamon, Nutmeg, Cloves and Allspice. Gently fold into the whipped cream.

Run the mixer slower 4 times around the bowl, then scrape the sides.

Run the mixer again slowly until all the ingredients are fully incorporated.  Do not over mix.

Pour the batter into the prepared pan, tap down gently to settle.  Bake for 20-25 minutes, until the center is set.

How To Make The Keto Browned Butter Cream Cheese Frosting

Beat the softened cream cheese in an electric stand mixer for 2-3 minutes on medium high speed until light and fluffy.

Add in 1/2 of the sifted powdered sweetener, vanilla extract and salt.  Mix on low to prevent the powdered sweetener “poof.”  

Add in the second half of the powdered sweetener, slowly at first, then beat for 3-4 minutes.

Frost the Keto Spice Cake and enjoy!

Keto Spice Cake FAQ's

How Do I Store Keto Spice Cake?

Cover the pan tightly with plastic (or beeswax) wrap and store in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.

Can I Use A Different Sweetener?

Absolutely!  I use Lakanto Sweeteners or Allulose because I love how they bake and cook like sugar.  If you do shop Lakanto, use code FITMOMJOURNEY to save $$.  If not, use whatever low carb sweetener you prefer to bake with.

Can I freeze Keto Spice Cake?

Yes! Slice the cake and wrap individual slices, before freezing individually and storing in a ziploc bag.  Use within 1 month.
