Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup almond flour
- 2 tablespoons coconut flour
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.25 cup erythritol sweetener
- 0.5 cup unsweetened applesauce
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.25 cup unsalted butter
- 0.25 cup cream cheese
- 0.5 cup pecans
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon xanthan gum
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8-inch round cake pan with butter or non-stick spray.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, ground cinnamon, baking powder, erythritol sweetener, and salt.
In a separate bowl, mix together the unsweetened applesauce, eggs, melted butter, vanilla extract, and cream cheese until smooth.
Gradually add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients and stir until fully incorporated and a batter forms.
Fold in the chopped pecans and xanthan gum, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan, spreading it evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for around 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the cake to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once cool, slice into 8 pieces and serve. The cake can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
