Pound Cake, Almond Flour

1 cup butter
1 cup splenda (splenda is an artificial sweetener)
5 eggs
2 cups almond flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon lemon extract
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Cream butter and splenda well. Add eggs, one at a time, beating after each.

Mix flour with baking powder and add to egg mixture a little at a time while beating.  Add lemon & vanilla extracts.  Pour into greased 9" cake pan and bake at 350 for 50-55 minutes.

I've got the whole cake as 47 carbs.  I can easily get 8 large slices from a 9" cake, which puts it at 5.8 carbs each.  If you're careful you can get 12 slices for only 3.9 carbs a slice!  (I had a hard time eating a whole slice so I cut it into the 12 slices)

* Add some cocoa to the recipe & eliminate the lemon extract for chocolate cake
** Add banana extract instead of lemon and a few chopped nuts...  It made a great banana nut cake.
