Ingredients
  

Poundcake Batter:

  • 3/4 cup cream cheese, softened
  • ¼ cup ¼ cup sour cream
  • 6 tbsp butter softened
  • ¾ cup cup erythritol
  • 6 eggs
  • ¼ cup lemon juice
  • 3 cups almond flour
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 1 tbsp lemon zest

 Lemon Glaze: 

  • ½ cup powdered erythritol or liquid allulose
  • 1 tbsp cream cheese, softened
  • 1 tsp lemon juice

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350. Line a loaf pan with parchment paper.
  • Combine the cream cheese, butter, sour cream, and sweetener in the food processor. Pulse until smooth. Add the eggs, lemon juice, flours, baking powder, and zest. Pulse until well combined. **See Notes
  • Pour the batter onto a prepared loaf baking pan and spread it evenly.
  • Bake for 65 minutes or until completely firm with deep golden brown edges. If getting too brown, cover with tin foil at 45 minutes.
  • Let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then run a knife around the edges and then lift the parchment to remove it from the pan. Cool completely.
  • Whisk the ingredients for the icing until fully incorporated adding the lemon juice one teaspoon at a time for the desired consistency. Drizzle the glaze on top of the cake once it is completely cooled. Enjoy!

Notes

This recipe can also be done without a food processor. Just make sure to whisk all ingredients very well until fully smooth. It’ll take a couple more minutes to achieve but it’s totally doable (I’ve done it a couple of times)
