  • 1/2 cup coconut flour
  • 1/2 cup erythritol (or your preferred sweetener)
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 4 large eggs

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line a 9-inch round cake pan.
  2. Make the Cake:
    • In a large bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, erythritol, baking powder, and salt.
    • In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, almond milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
    • Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until smooth.
    • Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and spread it evenly.
    • Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
    • Remove from the oven and let the cake cool completely in the pan.
  3. Make the Pecan Praline Topping:
    • In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.
    • Add the heavy cream, erythritol, and salt, and stir until everything is well combined.
    • Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally, until it thickens (about 3-4 minutes).
    • Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract and pecans.
  4. Assemble the Cake: Once the cake has cooled, pour the pecan praline topping over the top, spreading it evenly.
  5. Serve: Let the cake set for about 10-15 minutes so the topping can firm up, then slice and enjoy!
