Is this cake gluten-free?

Don’t you love it when an amazing recipe is gluten-free? We do too. This Keto cranberry cake is prepared with almond flour and coconut flour, which are both naturally gluten-free. While this recipe is safe for people allergic to gluten, it isn’t safe for those allergic to dairy, nuts, or eggs.

Can you swap the cranberries for another berry?

Of course, you can. We are making this cake with cranberries because they are associated with the holidays. But you can replace them with strawberries, blackberries, raspberries, or blueberries—however, not all these berries pair well with the orange flavor. Raspberries and strawberries go well with the orange taste, but if you are going to use blueberries or blackberries, replace the orange zest and extract with lemon zest and extract.

How long will this Keto new year dessert last?

We can’t guarantee that this cake will make it to the New Year, but in case it does, you can store it in an airtight container for 3-4 days at room temperature. You can also freeze this cake for up to a month. Slice the cake, then wrap each piece individually with cling film or aluminum foil. To thaw, place it in the fridge overnight or on the countertop for a couple of hours.

Can you adapt this Keto coffee cake to a vegan diet?

To adapt this recipe to a vegan diet, you need to substitute a few ingredients. The first one is the butter. Fortunately, with the vegan lifestyle becoming more common, several dairy-free butter products are available in stores, but you can also use coconut oil. To substitute the eggs, you can use chia seeds or ground flax seeds mixed with water.
