Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups (192g) almond flour
  • 1/4 cup (28g) coconut flour
  • 3/4 cup (150g) erythritol sweetener
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • Pinch of salt
  • 3 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1/2 cup (113g) unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup (60ml) heavy cream
  • 1 cup (150g) strawberries, chopped
  • 1/2 cup (75g) blueberries
  • Lemon juice, to taste
  • 2 tbsp erythritol (for berry topping)
  • 1 cup (240ml) heavy cream (for whipped topping)
  • 2 tbsp erythritol (for whipped topping)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract (for whipped topping)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C). Grease pans lightly with butter or line with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together almond flour, coconut flour, erythritol, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In another bowl, beat eggs until frothy. Add melted butter, vanilla extract, and heavy cream; mix well.
  4. Fold dry ingredients into wet ingredients slowly using a spatula until batter is thick but pourable. Add up to 2 tbsp more heavy cream if too dense.
  5. Prepare berry topping by mixing chopped strawberries and blueberries with lemon juice and erythritol. Let sit to macerate.
  6. Pour batter into prepared pan(s), filling about 3/4 full for mini cakes or muffins.
  7. Bake for 20-25 minutes until a toothpick inserted comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
  8. Cool completely on a cooling rack.
  9. Beat heavy cream with erythritol and vanilla extract until soft peaks form to make whipped cream topping.
  10. Assemble dessert by spooning or piping whipped cream over cooled cakes and topping with macerated berries.

Notes

Use an oven thermometer to ensure accurate baking temperature. Beat eggs separately to add air for lighter texture. Avoid overbaking to prevent dryness. Chill cream and bowl before whipping for best volume. Prep berries and whipped cream while cakes bake to save time. Store leftovers refrigerated up to 3 days or freeze up to 1 month.
