Lemon Poppy Seed Bundt Cake (Low Carb & Gluten Free)

I was wanting a lemony dessert and thought this one sounded good from one of my favorite bloggers AllDayIDreamAboutFood.com.  Carolyn creates some really yummy low carb food!

I love lemon desserts, but I guess after trying this one, I'm not a big fan of poppy seeds.  I never tried anything lemon poppy seed before going grain free / sugar free, but this dessert didn't taste the least bit healthy, so I know I just don't care for the poppy seeds.  The glaze on this has a very strong lemon flavor too, almost like just eating a lemon.  The consistency of this cake is AMAZING though!  Here is the recipe for the Lemon Poppy Seed Bundt Cake.

Low Carb High Fat Knock off Cinn-a-stack Pancakes

Well it's been forever since I've posted.  Have been busy moving, and renovating. But I've also been cooking and trying many new recipes, most of them Keto.  I'll get to posting my reviews of those soon.  This one was SOOOO good, I just had to hop on here and post it!

I used two different recipes to make these.  The pancake I used was off of www.ruledme.com.  It was for Fluffy Buttermilk Pancakes.  To lower the carb count I used heavy whipping cream instead of the buttermilk.  This recipe made 7 pancakes for me.  On their own I could taste the coconut flour and protein powder, which I'm not really fond of.  But after adding the toppings...holy cow!

For the cinnamon topping and icing I used this AMAZING recipe from Lisa over at 247lowcarbdiner.blogspot.com.  She has some great recipes, but this one blew me away!

This tastes almost identical to the real thing.  I even got a sugar rush from it.  How that is possible, I'm not sure...but I could not even finish half of it.  Check out my pics below for some yummy goodness!
