Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Almond flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.75 cup Powdered erythritol or other sugar-free sweetener
- 4 large Eggs
- 0.5 cup Unsweetened almond milk
- 0.25 cup Unsalted butter, melted (or coconut oil for dairy-free option)
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoons Almond extract
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 cup Sliced almonds (optional, for topping)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8-inch round cake pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, baking powder, powdered erythritol, and salt until evenly combined.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs until slightly frothy. Add the almond milk, melted butter, vanilla extract, and almond extract, and whisk until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until a smooth batter forms. Do not overmix.
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan, spreading it out evenly. If desired, sprinkle the sliced almonds on top for added texture and flavor.
Bake the cake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Slice and serve your Low Carb Sugar-Free Vanilla Almond Cake. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
