Wire rack

Ingredients used

1 cup almond flour
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup almond milk (or milk of choice)

1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 cup whey protein powder

1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 cup erythritol (or sweetener of choice)
1/4 teaspoon salt

3 large egg whites

Preparation method

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch round cake pan.

In a large bowl, mix together the almond flour, cocoa powder, whey protein powder, erythritol, baking powder, and salt until well combined.

In another bowl, whisk together the egg whites, applesauce, vanilla extract, and almond milk until smooth. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined.

Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
