Hey guys! Happy September! It’s really hard to believe we only have 3 months left of the year.. what?! This year has been full of craziness, but it HAS seemed to fly by.. I guess they always do the older you get.
We’ve had an abundance of blueberries lately since they’re still in season and seem to be on sale every week. I’ve kind of been throwing them in everything lately, hah! This lemon blueberry cake is sooooo yummy! I used Swerve’s vanilla cake mix and modified it.. so super delish. You would have no idea that this cake is low-carb and sugar-free. You can find the link to order them here! (The chocolate is just as delious)
To modify this recipe I simply added lemon, lemon zest, and blueberries to the baking mix. I did increase the cook time a bit, but this can vary, so make sure you are checking it frequently. Top it with your favorite keto cream cheese frosting and you have yourself an amazing, end-of-summer dessert. You’re welcome! 😉
