- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt

- Topping:
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream, whipped with 1 tbsp powdered erythritol
- 1/2 cup unsweetened shredded coconut, toasted
Directions:
Step 1: Prepare the Cake
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13 inch baking pan.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the almond flour, coconut flour, shredded coconut, sweetener, baking powder, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, combine the eggs, almond milk, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until fully combined.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool completely.
Step 2: Make the Coconut Filling
- In a small bowl, mix the unsweetened coconut cream, almond milk, and powdered sweetener.
- Poke holes all over the cooled cake using a straw or the end of a wooden spoon. Slowly pour the coconut mixture over the cake, letting it soak in.
Step 3: Add Toppings
- Spread the whipped cream evenly over the top of the cake.
- Sprinkle the toasted coconut flakes over the whipped cream layer.
- Chill the cake in the fridge for at least 1 hour before serving. Enjoy this creamy coconut delight!
Pro Tips:
- Sweetness: Adjust the sweetness of both the cake and filling to your taste with your preferred low-carb sweetener.
- Toasting the Coconut: Toasting the shredded coconut gives it a golden, crunchy texture, enhancing the cake’s flavor.
