    What makes this keto orange cake so festive? The cardamon, zest, cloves, and cinnamon add sweetness and warmth that tastes like Christmas in a slice! Serve on its own or slather it with cream cheese or butter if you feel indulgent.

    How To Make Orange Spice Cake

    The Ingredients

    • Almond flour - Super-fine blanched almond flour. Make sure it's very fine, or your cake will have a gritty texture.
    • Eggs - Free-range eggs at room temperature.
    • Coconut oil - Can be substituted with avocado oil.
    • Erythritol - This is the sweetener for the cake. I used powdered Erythritol. You can substitute it for other powdered sugar-free sweeteners like stevia, monk fruit, Allulose, etc.
    • Baking powder
    • Baking soda
    • Xanthan gum
    • Orange - You'll need a small amount of orange juice and zest for this keto orange cake.
    • Orange extract - A high-quality pure orange extract.
    • Vanilla extract - A high-quality pure vanilla extract.
    • Spice blend - I used a simple blend of ground cardamom, cinnamon, and cloves.

    The Directions

    • Preheat your oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit (165 degrees Celsius), and line and grease a 10-inch bundt pan.
    • In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour with the Erythritol, cardamon, cinnamon, cloves, xanthan gum, baking powder, baking soda, and a pinch of salt.

    • Add the eggs, coconut oil, water, orange juice, orange zest, orange extract, and vanilla extract in the same bowl. Whisk together until well combined into a batter.

    • Pour the batter into the prepared bundt pan and bake in the oven for 40 to 50 minutes, until golden.
    • Allow the cake to cool in the pan for a few minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack and let it cool to room temperature.

    Storage Instructions

    • In the freezer: Wrap individual slices in plastic wrap and place them in an airtight container. They'll keep for up to 3 months.
    • To defrost: Place the frozen slices of keto orange cake in the fridge overnight to thaw.
