Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups almond flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 0.75 cup erythritol sweetener
- 4 large eggs, room temperature
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup full-fat coconut milk
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8-inch round cake pan and line the bottom with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the almond flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter and erythritol sweetener with an electric mixer until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla extract.
Gradually add the almond flour mixture to the wet ingredients, alternating with the coconut milk, beginning and ending with the flour mixture. Mix until just combined.
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then carefully remove it from the pan and allow it to cool completely on a wire rack before serving.
