For the recipe, it is straight forward. Mix the sweetener with walnuts, fresh lemon juice and cinnamon. Set aside. The mixture of fresh lemon juice and cinnamon make the walnut swirl extra flavorful.

In a separate bowl, combine dry ingredients. Next, whisk the wet ingredients and mix with the dry until smooth.

add the walnut swirl mixture

Swirl in the walnut mixture and transfer the batter into your favourite bundt pan. This is my favourite bundt pan because it is non-stick and makes the cake look pretty.
