Keto Orange Olive Oil Cake

For the cake:
Preheat oven to 350ºF. Line a 9 x 5 loaf pan with parchment paper. If you plan on making the frosting, take the cream cheese out of the fridge and set aside to come to room temperature.

Combine almond flour, Swerve icing sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt and orange zest in a large bowl and stir until combined.

In a separate bowl, whisk eggs until well beaten. Add olive oil, orange juice, and vanilla extract and whisk until combined. Fold wet ingredients into dry ingredients and stir until batter is smooth and no lumps remain. Pour batter into lined loaf pan.

Place pan on the middle rack in the oven and bake for 40 minutes. To test whether it’s done, insert a toothpick in the centre of the cake. It should come out clean.

Remove the loaf pan from the oven and let the cake cool completely.

For the frosting:
While cake is cooking and cooling, add softened cream cheese and softened butter to a medium bowl and mix with a hand mixer until well blended. Add orange juice, Swerve icing sugar and salt and blend again.

Once cake is completely cooled, spread frosting evenly on top. Garnish with orange zest and enjoy!
