Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9-inch round cake pan. You can also line it with parchment paper for easier removal.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, xanthan gum, and salt until well combined.
In a separate bowl, beat the melted butter with the erythritol (or your choice of low-carb sweetener) until you achieve a smooth mixture.
Add the eggs to the butter-sweetener mix, one at a time, beating well after each addition until fully incorporated.
Stir in the coconut milk, pandan extract, and vanilla extract until well mixed.
Gradually combine the wet ingredients with the dry mixture, stirring gently until you achieve a smooth batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes.
Transfer the cake to a wire rack and allow it to cool completely before serving.
Slice and enjoy your delicious, low carb pandan cake!
