Our Keto Vanilla Pound Cake is moist, sweet, and delicious. It’s a rich and buttery sugar-free cake recipe that is one of the best!
Some low carb pound cake recipes call for cream cheese – our recipe uses no cream cheese! Just a tasty blend of almond and coconut flour with unsalted butter, sweetener, sour cream, and a few other ingredients.
Seriously it is the best Keto Pound Cake I’ve made; 6 months later (as I update this) and I can still imagine the soft, buttery texture and sweet vanilla taste.
This Keto Pound Cake recipe makes 12 serves. 1 serving is one slice that has 2g net carbs.
Store your Low Carb Pound Cake in the fridge for up to 1 week, or freeze the unglazed cake for up to 3 months.

Can I not use butter etc to line the pan instead of parchment paper?
Full confession, I am not one who really ever bakes. 🙂
Hi Tyrone,
I find it is always best to use parchment knowing that the cake won’t stick to it, than to just grease the pan and have a potential disaster when you try to get it out of the pan. It also helps in the washing up department – less scrubbing required!
I hope that helps and happy baking!
