🥘Keto Blueberry Cream Cheese Coffee Cake Ingredients
These are the ingredients necessary to make Keto Blueberry Cream Cheese Coffee Cake.
- Blueberries - fresh is best but frozen thawed will work too
- Keto sweeteners - granulated and powdered.
- Flours - I use a superfine almond flour and an organic coconut flour
- Xanthan Gum - this helps hold the cake together and keep it from crumbling
A detailed list with measurements and instructions can be found on the printable recipe card at the bottom of the page.
🔪Keto Blueberry Cream Cheese Coffee Cake Instructions
This is a basic breakdown of the steps involved in making Keto Blueberry Cream Cheese Coffee Cake. You will find the full directions in the recipe card at the bottom of the post.
Mix together the cream cheese, sugar and vanilla on medium-low speed until creamy. Add egg white and mix on low just to combine. Set aside.
Cream together the butter and sweetener on medium-low speed. Add egg and egg yolk and vanilla.
Transfer the batter into the prepared pan and smooth with a spatula. Sprinkle with 1/3 cup blueberries. Spread the cream cheese filling on top. Place remaining blueberries over cream cheese filling.
Sprinkle the streusel on top of blueberries.
Hint: For a perfectly creamy and smooth cream cheese layer, make sure your cream cheese is softened at room temperature before mixing it with the sweetener, egg white, and vanilla. This will ensure a velvety texture and even distribution of flavors throughout the cake.
Substitutions
- Sweetener - If you prefer a different sweetener, you can swap the Besti Monk Fruit and Allulose sweetener with your preferred low-carb sweetener, keeping in mind that this recipe was developed using that sweetener so I cannot guarantee the measurements or results with any others..
- Almond Flour - If you have a nut allergy or prefer a different flavor, you can substitute almond flour with an equal amount of sunflower seed flour or sesame seed flour.
- Xanthan Gum - Xanthan gum is used here as a binding agent. If you don't have xanthan gum or prefer not to use it, you can try using 1/4 teaspoon of psyllium husk powder as a substitute.
📖Variations
- Lemon Blueberry - Add the zest of one lemon to the cake batter for a refreshing twist. You can also drizzle a lemon glaze made with lemon juice and powdered sweetener on top of the cooled cake.
- Mixed Berry - Instead of using only blueberries, try using a combination of your favorite low-carb berries such as strawberries, raspberries, and blackberries to add a medley of flavors.
- Nutty Delight - Stir in some chopped nuts like pecans or walnuts into the streusel topping for added crunch and nutty goodness.
🍽Equipment
This is the equipment you will need to make Keto Blueberry Cream Cheese Coffee Cake.
Storage
Store the Keto Blueberry Cream Cheese Coffee Cake in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Good for 4-5 days.
If you want to store the coffee cake for longer, you can freeze it. Wrap individual slices or the entire cake tightly in plastic wrap and then place it in a freezer-safe container or freezer bag. It can be stored in the freezer for up to 2-3 months.
💭Top tip
When sprinkling the streusel topping on the cake, gently press it into the batter slightly. This will help the streusel adhere to the cake and create a delightful crumbly texture once baked. Remember to tent the top with aluminum foil if it starts to brown too much during baking to prevent excessive browning while ensuring the cake cooks evenly.
FAQ about Keto Blueberry Cream Cheese Coffee Cake
Each slice of this coffee cake contains only 8 grams of net carbs, making it a fantastic choice for those watching their carb intake without compromising on taste.
I have only used the flours listed in the recipe so I cannot guarantee any other flours. I do know that, if you suffer from nut allergies, many people will substitute sunflower seed or sesame flour 1:1 for almond.
Absolutely! This coffee cake freezes well. Simply wrap individual slices or the entire cake tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil, then store it in a freezer-safe container. Thaw in the refrigerator when ready to enjoy.

Probably one of my favorite keto recipes I have made, although I did feel like the cream cheese amount was not enough so I did double that and used splenda and golden monkfruit for the sugar and brown sugar, but other those alterations the result came out great.
