Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Almond flour
- 0.5 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 cup Granular erythritol or other keto sweetener
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 4 whole Large eggs
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Almond milk, unsweetened
- 1 tablespoon Apple cider vinegar
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line two 8-inch round cake pans with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, sift together the almond flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, erythritol, baking powder, and salt.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, melted butter, vanilla extract, almond milk, and apple cider vinegar until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir with a spatula until just combined.
Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans and smooth the tops with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for about 10 minutes, then carefully turn them out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
Once the cakes are fully cooled, you can frost them with your favorite keto-friendly frosting or enjoy them plain.
