Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams Dark chocolate
- 150 grams Unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons Cocoa powder
- 3 tablespoons Coconut flour
- 4 large Eggs
- 150 grams Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Gluten-free vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 200°C (390°F).
Grease six small ramekins with butter liberally and dust them with cocoa powder to prevent sticking.
In a heatproof bowl over simmering water, melt the dark chocolate and butter together, stirring continuously until completely combined and smooth. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
In a separate bowl, beat eggs, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and salt with a handheld mixer until the mixture is pale and thick.
Gently fold the chocolate mixture into the egg mixture using a spatula until fully incorporated.
Sift the coconut flour over the mixture, then fold it in gently, ensuring there are no lumps.
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared ramekins, filling them three-quarters full.
Place the ramekins on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes. The edges should be set, but the center should remain soft.
Remove from the oven and let the fondants rest for 1 minute. Run a knife around the edges and invert each fondant onto a serving plate.
Serve immediately while the centers are still gooey, optionally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
