Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Almond flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.75 cup Unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup Erythritol sweetener
- 4 units Large eggs
- 1 tablespoon Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Unsweetened almond milk
- 0.5 cup Greek yogurt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease and line two 8-inch round cake pans with parchment paper.
In a bowl, combine the almond flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix well and set aside.
In a separate bowl, using an electric mixer, beat the softened butter and erythritol until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the eggs to the butter mixture one at a time, beating well after each addition. Make sure each egg is fully incorporated before adding the next.
Mix in the vanilla extract, ensuring it's evenly distributed.
Alternately add the almond milk and the dry flour mixture to the wet ingredients, beginning and ending with the flour. Beat on low speed until just combined.
Gently fold in the Greek yogurt until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans, smoothing the tops with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cakes comes out clean.
Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then carefully turn them out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
Once completely cooled, frost or layer with your favorite sugar-free frosting and stack to create a beautiful layered cake.
