Ingredients
The following ingredients have 4 Servings
- 3 cups almond flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 5 large eggs
- 1 1/2 cups granulated sweetener of choice (I used keto brown sugar, but erythritol or monk fruit sweetener can be used)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup oil (I used canola oil but any neutral flavored oil can be used. )
- 2 cups carrots (shredded, approximately 3 large ones)
- 1/2 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
- 1/2 cup apple (shredded, approximately 1 large apple * See notes)
- 1/2 cup walnuts (chopped)
- 1-2 cups cream cheese frosting
Instruction
- Preheat the oven to 180C/350F. Grease two 8-inch cake pans with cooking spray and lightly dust it with almond flour.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine your almond flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt, and mix well. In a separate bowl, using a stick mixer, beat together the eggs and sweetener until smooth and almost double in size. Add in the vanilla extract. In a third bowl, whisk together the rest of the ingredients, until combined.
- Fold through the dry ingredients into the egg/sweetener/vanilla mixture, until just combined. Add the remaining ingredients and mix until fully incorporated.
- Distribute the cake batter amongst the two cake pans and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a skewer comes out mostly clean.
- Let the cakes cool for 10 minutes, before carefully turning them on to a wire rack to cool completely. Once cool, layer and frost, before letting it sit for 30 minutes, before serving.
