hi welcome back to my channel today I
have a dessert recipe for you and this
is not one of my own this is one and
that Keto Steve came up with if you
guys aren't familiar with Keto Steve
he does YouTube videos as well he has a
website and his recipes are pretty
fabulous they're really unique and his
videos have a sense of humor to him too
so definitely check out his channel I'm
gonna have it down below or just click
up here too so you can see his videos
today I'm gonna be making his recipe for
keto strawberry pound cake since strawberry
season is just right around the corner I
remember when I was working in a town in
Oregon they used to have a strawberry
festival every year probably around the
beginning in June I think it was I'm
sure there's other towns that too
strawberry festivals too but it's just
like it was a great way to kick off the
summer and strawberry season because I
love strawberries and I'm so glad that
we can have them on the keto diet
what I like about this recipe is that
the ingredients are really simple
there's just a few ingredients that
we're gonna add to it and guess what
there's no sweeteners either which I
thought was a pretty fabulous idea that
we're just using the sweetness from the
strawberries to add a little bit of
sweet taste to our pound cake so the
list of the ingredients includes some
eggs so there's four eggs here a cup of
almond flour then we have some cream
cheese half is going to go into the
pound cake itself and the other half is
going to go in the icing at the end we
have a half a stick of butter here which
would be a half a cup of butter that's
softened and then some baking powder
salt and vanilla extract and then to go
in the icing we have strawberries and
these are fresh organic strawberries
that I picked up from my local produce
stand the first step is that we're gonna
add the dry ingredients and then whisk
them together and set them aside next
we're gonna add just four ounces of the
cream cheese and the butter and we're
gonna mix that together using an
electric mixer until it's fully combined
then we add the eggs and the vanilla
extract and we're gonna beat this
together until it's smooth up next we
are going to slowly add in our dry
ingredients into the wet ingredients and
mix until they're combined form a baking
pan I'm going to be using a four inch
cake pan that I have greased and lined
with parchment paper and this will just
keep the pound cake from sticking to the
edges and the bottom so we can easily
get it out and then we're gonna pop this
in the oven and let it bake at 350
degrees he says for 45 minutes or until
it passes the toothpick test but we'll
see what my baking temperature will be
since I am using a four inch cake pans
it might be a little bit less than that
this is perfect I wish you guys could
smell it right now it smells really good
and it's nice and plump on top so we're
gonna let this cool for five to ten
minutes in just a little bit I'm going
to release it from the pan and put it on
a wire rack to cool further
while that's cooling I'm gonna move on
to make the glaze this is a strawberry
cream cheese glaze and it's gonna be
made in the blender which is two simple
ingredients strawberries and the
remainder of the cream cheese now that
our cake has been cooling for ten
minutes it's time to pour on that lovely
strawberry cream cheese icing we made we
do want it just slightly warm just so
that that glaze just melts a little bit
on top and I have here a cookie sheet
and a wire rack that I am going to pour
the glaze on top of so that it drips
down and catches all of those lovely
strawberry juices once you finish
pouring the icing on the cake now it's
time to refrigerate it for three to four
hours just to allow the icing to set
