Chantilly Cream
- 1cupheavy cream
- 0.25cuppowdered erythritolplus extra for dusting the cake
- 0.5tsp.pure vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350℉, and set a rack to the middle of the oven. Butter an 8 X 8 square, baking pan.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the Keto Chow, almond flour, coconut flour, ginger, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt and set aside.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, then whisk in the melted butter, erythritol, allulose, yacón syrup, almond milk, and vanilla extract.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until fully combined.
- Spread batter in the prepared cake pan and bake for 35-40 minutes until the cake is brown, set around the edges, and the center springs back when gently touched.
- While the cake is baking, make the Chantilly cream by combining the heavy cream, powdered erythritol, and vanilla extract in a chilled mixing bowl. Beat with an electric mixer until the cream holds soft peaks. Refrigerate until ready to use.
- Cool the cake and remove it from the pan. Dust it with a sprinkling of powdered sugar. For an old-fashioned decorative touch, you can cover the cake with a doily and sift the powdered erythritol over it. Carefully lift the doily and the powdered erythritol will create a lacy pattern.
- Serve the cake at room temperature or slightly warm with a healthy dollop of the Chantilly cream.
Notes
*The yacón syrup adds a molasses-like flavor to the cake but can be omitted.
