Description

Low-Carb Cake in a Jar is an easy and delicious treat that’s perfect for those following a low-carb diet. The combination of almond flour and erythritol creates a delightful cake without the added sugars.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup almond flour
  • 1/2 cup erythritol (or your preferred low-carb sweetener)
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the almond flour, erythritol, and cocoa powder, mixing well.
  3. In another bowl, whisk together 3 large eggs, 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until well combined.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined.
  5. Grease 4 small glass jars or ramekins with cooking spray or butter.
  6. Divide the batter evenly among the prepared jars or ramekins, filling each about halfway.
  7. Place the jars in a baking dish filled with about an inch of hot water (this creates a steam effect).
  8. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  9. Remove the jars from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving.

Notes

  • These cakes can be topped with whipped cream or berries for added flavor.
  • Ensure the jars are oven-safe before baking.
  • You can adjust the sweetness by using more or less erythritol.
