Instructions:

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8×8-inch (20×20 cm) baking dish or cake pan. You can also line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the 3 room-temperature eggs and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract until well combined.
Add 1/3 cup of granulated sweetener (such as Lakanto monk fruit) and mix until the sweetener is fully incorporated.
Pour in 1/3 cup of melted unsalted butter and 1/2 cup of plain Greek yogurt (or sour cream). Mix everything until you have a smooth, consistent batter.
In a separate bowl, combine the dry ingredients: 2 cups of blanched almond flour, 2 teaspoons of baking powder, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Stir well to ensure the baking powder and salt are evenly distributed.
Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet mixture while stirring continuously. This will form a thick batter.
Gently fold in 1/2 cup of fresh blueberries and the optional lemon zest. The lemon zest will add a lovely citrusy aroma to your cake.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 25-30 minutes, or until the cake is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Once the cake is done, remove it from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for about 10-15 minutes. Afterward, you can transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Slice, serve, and enjoy your delicious, moist Keto Blueberry Cake. It’s perfect for a guilt-free, low-carb treat that satisfies your sweet cravings while keeping you on track with your keto lifestyle.
