Excited to make this recipe – before I jump in, I have large eggs on hand. Would it be 6-7 large eggs to equal the 8 medium?
Yes, that’s how many I would use
My daughter made this for me and it was delicious! Even the “sugar-eating” guests thought it was fabulous and got two helpings. I put it in the refrigerator overnight and love that it tastes like a pound cake when it’s cold. Hands down my favorite THM/sugar free dessert. This cake does not taste “healthy” at all!! A real crowd pleaser.
I can’t tell you how much this review means to me. My goal is to help moms/women take care of them and their families, eating healthy meals. Thank you so much for taking the time to leave this review.
What kind of sweetener did you use?
In the cake I used allulose. It measures 1 for 1 to sugar. I used confectioners swerve in the frosting.
Looks great! Have you tried in another pan, other than bundt? If so, how would cook time vary? thanks for sharing!
What pan are you wanting to use? A 9×13 pan might be 40ish minutes.
