DRY INGREDIENTS

Ground golden flaxseeds = 240 g (2 cups) (Watch this video on how to grind the flaxseeds)

Cinnamon powder = 12 g (2 tbsp) (This amount produces a moderate flavor. If you prefer the flavor to be stronger, you can add a bit more)

Baking powder = 12 g (3 tsp)

Baking Soda = 4 g (1 tsp)

Salt = 1/2 tsp

Monk fruit or any keto friendly sweetener = 120 to 150 g (120 g is moderately sweet so you can adjust accordingly. You can also use any keto friendly sweetener.)

Lightly roasted walnuts (chopped) = 90 g (3/4 cup)

WET INGREDIENTS

Coconut oil = 60 ml (1/4 cup) (OR any keto friendly oil including unsalted melted butter)

Whole eggs = 4 large (230 g)

Vanilla extract = 1 tsp

Whipping or heavy cream = 240 ml (1 cup) (OR same amount of yogurt / sour cream. For a dairy free option, you can use the same amount of coconut cream. You can also replace the whipping cream with any keto friendly milk. However, due to the difference in consistency and content, you need to reduce the amount by 15% and increase the fat (i.e. the oil) by 70%. For e.g. if you are using unsweetened almond milk, the amount should be 204 ml, and oil should be 102 ml.)

1.  For best results, weigh the ingredients with a digital scale.

2.  Preheat the oven at 350 F or 180 C.

3.  In a bowl, add all the dry ingredients (except the walnuts) and mix until well combined.

4.  Add all the wet ingredients and whisk until well combined. Then add the walnuts but reserve some for the topping. Mix to combine. The batter is quite thick.

5.  I used a 9x4 inch silicone loaf pan. This silicone loaf pan has 6 stabilizer bars which makes the pan sturdy and prevent bulging at the sides, so I highly recommend it. You can also use any suitable pan.

6.  Transfer the batter into the pan and spread evenly.

7.  Top with reserved walnuts.

8.  Bake for 45 to 55 mins or until a wooden skewer comes out clean.

9.  Cool the cake on a wire rack, then slice according to your desired thickness.

10.  This cake can be refrigerated for up to a week or freeze for up to 3 months.
