Keto Carrot Cake Roll

Ingredients:

For the Carrot Cake:

  • 1 cup almond flour
  • 2 tbsp coconut flour
  • 2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp ground ginger
  • 1/4 tsp nutmeg
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 3 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1/2 cup erythritol or monk fruit sweetener (granulated)
  • 1/2 cup grated carrot
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk

For the Cream Cheese Filling:

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup powdered erythritol or monk fruit sweetener
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup heavy whipping cream

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 10×15-inch baking sheet with parchment paper and grease lightly with cooking spray.
  2. Prepare the Carrot Cake Batter:
    • In a medium bowl, whisk together almond flour, coconut flour, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, baking powder, and salt.
    • In a separate large bowl, beat the eggs and sweetener until light and fluffy.
    • Add the vanilla extract and almond milk to the egg mixture and mix well.
    • Gradually fold in the dry ingredients, followed by the grated carrot. Stir until well combined.
  3. Bake the Cake:
    • Pour the batter evenly onto the prepared baking sheet and spread it to form an even layer.
    • Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the cake is set and springs back when touched.
  4. Roll the Cake:
    • Lay a clean kitchen towel on a flat surface and dust it lightly with powdered sweetener.
    • Once the cake has cooled slightly, carefully invert it onto the towel. Peel off the parchment paper.
    • Roll the cake up with the towel (starting from the short end) and let it cool completely.
  5. Make the Cream Cheese Filling:
    • In a mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese, powdered sweetener, and vanilla extract until smooth.
    • Slowly add the heavy cream and beat until light and fluffy.
  6. Assemble the Roll:
    • Unroll the cake carefully and spread the cream cheese filling evenly across the surface.
    • Gently roll the cake back up (without the towel), keeping it as tight as possible.
  7. Chill & Serve:
    • Refrigerate the carrot cake roll for at least 1 hour before slicing.
    • Dust with a bit more powdered sweetener or garnish with chopped pecans if desired.
