Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams unsweetened chocolate
- 150 grams unsalted butter
- 100 grams erythritol
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 4 large eggs
- 50 grams almond flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8-inch springform pan and line the bottom with parchment paper.
In a medium-sized saucepan, melt the unsweetened chocolate and unsalted butter over low heat, stirring constantly until completely smooth. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.
In a large bowl, whisk together the erythritol and vanilla extract.
Add the eggs to the erythritol mixture one at a time, beating well after each addition until the mixture is thick and pale.
Slowly pour the melted chocolate mixture into the egg mixture, stirring constantly until fully combined.
In a separate bowl, combine the almond flour, baking powder, and salt.
Gently fold the dry ingredients into the chocolate mixture, being careful not to over-mix.
Pour the batter into the prepared springform pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the torte is set around the edges but still slightly jiggly in the center.
Remove from the oven and allow the torte to cool in the pan for at least 30 minutes before gently running a knife around the edges and releasing it from the springform pan.
Serve the chocolate torte slightly warm or at room temperature. Optionally, garnish with sugar-free whipped cream or a dusting of cocoa powder.
