This isn’t an original recipe but it is an adjusted recipe. It will, however, be the base for all my low carb pound cakes from now on. This is rich and moist and will be gone by tomorrow. I have a lemon tree so I used my own fresh Myer lemon juice for the glaze. Good ole carbquick. This is loaded with fiber and protein but who cares lol it’s 2 net carbs per 1/16 of the entire cake. It’s not even remotely low fat but it is extremely low carb. I could skinny this recipe down with margarine and low fat cream cheese but not today. Maybe next time.

I'm an army brat with a Cajun mother and an Irish dad. I'm married to the love of my life, David, and we have 2 daughters and 2 grandchildren. I've been a barber for 40 years. Im an old fashioned, old school cook and my recipes are basic. I change them up all the time.Since finding out I’m diabetic I’ve had to rearrange old habits. Any recipe I have can be made the old fashioned way OR replaced with lower carb options. Just ask and I’ll tell you what has worked for me.I’m the self proclaimed queen of the leftover. I have issues with leftovers looking back at me with the same sappy look they had the day before. Can’t do it. My super power is turning what I find in my fridge into something I want to eat. I work so much better under pressure. I live for shortcuts and not having to run to the grocery every day. Work with what you have. Adapt and overcome. Also, the less dishes, bowls, and pots I hafta use, the better. Hope some of these recipes work out for ya!
