Ingredients
  

The Icing

  • ½ cup erythritol powdered
  • ½ cup blackberries strained
  • 2 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 6 tablespoon butter softened
  • ¼ cup heavy whipping cream

The Cake

  • cup butter salted
  • ¼ cup erythritol powdered
  • 1 ½ cup almond flour
  • 2 tablespoon psyllium husk powder
  • 2 tablespoon poppy seeds
  • 1 ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • 2 large egg
  • ½ cup sour cream
  • 2 teaspoon lemon zest
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¼ teaspoon liquid stevia

Instructions
 

  • Start by putting the butter for the cake into a pan over medium heat. Preheat oven to 350F.
  • Grind erythritol for the cake in a spice grinder until powdered completely. Let settle before removing lid.
  • Add almond flour, powdered erythritol, psyllium husk powder, poppy seeds and baking powder into a bowl.
  • In a separate bowl, mix together eggs, sour cream, lemon zest, vanilla extract and liquid stevia.
  • Keep an eye on your butter until it browns; it should look a deep golden color.
  • Slowly pour the browned butter into the wet ingredients while mixing with your spoon.
  • Add dry ingredients a little bit at a time while mixing until your batter forms.
  • Grease a round cake pan, then press your batter into the pan.
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes, until the cake is golden brown on the top.
  • Let the cake cool slightly, then remove from the pan and let cool on a cooling rack.
  • Grind remaining erythritol in a spice grinder, then grind blackberries until a paste is formed (you can use a food processor for this, or your spice grinder if you immediately clean it out). Strain the paste into a separate container, making sure no seeds get through.
  • Add lemon juice and powdered erythritol to the blackberry puree and mix together well.
  • In a separate bowl (or clean out one of the bowls you used earlier), beat together remaining butter with heavy cream using a hand mixer.
  • Slowly mix in the blackberry puree until a thick icing is formed.
  • Plop the icing on the cake and cover the entire cake, sides included.
  • Place in the refrigerator for 20-30 minutes, then serve!
