Ingredients
Scale
- 1 ½ cups almond flour
- ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon sea salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- ½ teaspoon ground ginger
- ½ cup erythritol or your favorite keto-friendly sweetener
- 4 large eggs
- ½ cup unsweetened almond milk
- ½ cup melted coconut oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons strong brewed espresso
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F and prepare an 8-inch round cake pan by greasing it and lining the base with parchment paper.
- In a spacious bowl, mix together the almond flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, sea salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger until evenly distributed.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs until fluffy, then incorporate the erythritol, almond milk, melted coconut oil, vanilla extract, and brewed espresso. Stir until smooth and well-combined.
- Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry mixture, stirring just until blended. Avoid overmixing to keep the cake light and airy.
- Transfer the batter into the prepared cake pan, smoothing the top with a spatula. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Once baked, let the cake cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before carefully moving it to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Enjoy the cake on its own or enhance it with a dollop of whipped cream or a layer of sugar-free frosting if desired.
Notes
- For an extra burst of flavor, consider adding a tablespoon of instant coffee granules to the wet mixture.
- You can elevate the cake with a drizzle of sugar-free chocolate ganache or mix in some chopped nuts or sugar-free chocolate chips for added crunch.
