Whisk
Wire rack

Ingredients used

1 cup whey protein powder
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup erythritol or your preferred sweetener

1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk
1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups almond flour
2 teaspoons baking powder

4 large eggs

Preparation method

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

In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, whey protein powder, erythritol, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Mix well.

In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, unsweetened applesauce, almond milk, and vanilla extract until smooth. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until fully combined.

Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top with a spatula. 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, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.
