My very favorite dessert is Strawberry Shortcake. My grandmother used to make a 6 layer strawberry shortcake that was out of this world. With the weather warming up, I’m starting to see fresh strawberries everywhere, which of course makes me start thinking about keto/low carb foods with berries. So far, I’ve made a Lemon Berry Fluff and Mixed Berry Muffins that turned out fantastic! The other day cravings for a Strawberry Shortcake hit me out of nowhere, so I started experimenting with a 90-second cake recipe. Over the past week, I have made this Keto Strawberry Shortcake recipe many different ways with varying ingredients before settling on THE ONE. Now, I wouldn’t eat this cake by itself as I think most keto type cakes alone are kind of dry. Also, it’s important to make this cake very thin. I used a 6″ glass dish. Other cakes that I made that were thicker just weren’t as good since we have to limit the number of berries that we add. I think it is even better if you once you add the strawberry mixture to the cake you pop it in the fridge for a little while so that the strawberry juice begins to saturate the cake. Also, I was lazy and squirted Reddi-Wip on top instead of making homemade whipped topping. I know. I’m sure there are ingredients that aren’t great, but I was SO EXCITED to eat this I just couldn’t make the time to whip up the homemade version. I hope you love this recipe as much as I do. If I hadn’t already used all my strawberries this week testing this recipe, I would make one right now as a special treat to celebrate just how yummy Keto Strawberry Shortcake is to my tummy! 

Have you ever seen anything more keto-glorious? Is that even a word? I’m sure it wasn’t until I made this Keto Strawberry Shortcake. Now I know for certain that this is a way of life I could stick to forever and ever!
