This keto gingerbread bundt cake is the perfect dessert to share at a party. It’s full of seasonal aromas and tastes!
Gingerbread Bundt Cake
There are a handful of flavors that perfectly encapsulate the holiday season – peppermint and gingerbread. The best thing about gingerbread is that it has such a crowd-pleasing taste.
As this cake bakes your kitchen will fill with a mingling of warm aromas – cinnamon, cloves, and ginger. It’s better than any candle ever hoped of being!
Even on the keto diet, you can still enjoy a slice of sweet cake. You just have to make sure you use low-carb ingredients and the right sugar substitutes.

This bundt cake is perfect to share at parties. It’s lovely enough to be the centerpiece of the dessert table. Since it is naturally gluten-free, you can share it with anyone that can’t have gluten.
If you are short on time, make this ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator. It will stay fresh in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Just make sure to keep it in an airtight container so it doesn’t dry out.
Keto Bundt Cake
A bundt cake is a stunning cake baked in a decorative fluted tube pan. It has a hollow middle – a lot like a cake-sized donut.
If you don’t have a bundt cake pan, you can bake this in a loaf pan, round cake pan, or even a square cake pan (I have this set). You can even make gingerbread cupcakes with this recipe.
The only thing that will change is the cooking time since a cupcake will bake faster than a bundt cake. You’ll know it is fully cooked when you insert a toothpick and it comes out clean.
No matter which cake pan you use, make sure you grease it with a keto-friendly baking spray. This cake likes to stick to the pan – even the nonstick pan.
Keto Gingerbread Cake
You won’t believe it, but there really are just 3g net carbs in each slice of cake! It’s so liberating to be able to enjoy a slice of gingerbread cake guilt-free.
I included a recipe for sugar-free cream cheese frosting in the recipe card. I love this icing! You can use this on top of other low-carb cupcakes and cake recipes too. Then, dust it with some cinnamon.
For a little extra flair, sprinkle some sugar-free chocolate shavings on top. Another fun option is to skip the icing altogether and just dust the bundt cake with a confectioner’s sugar substitute. It looks like a snow-dusted cake this way.
Keto Gingerbread
One slice of this keto gingerbread bundt cake will actually fill you up – especially if you use the icing. I like to enjoy a slice of it with a scoop of my favorite keto ice cream or a small bowl of low-carb mousse.
If you are enjoying this as your breakfast (no shame in that!), then pour yourself a hot cup of coffee or tea and start your day out right! Since this is made with almond flour, it’s actually not bad for you.
