Weight Watchers Black Forest Cake Recipe
Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups almond flour
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup unsweetened almond milk
1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
1/4 cup granulated sweetener (like erythritol or stevia)
1 cup cherry pie filling (ensure it’s vegan or use a reduced-sugar version)
Light whipped topping
Fresh cherries
Unsweetened cocoa powder or chocolate shavings for garnish
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line two 9-inch round cake pans with parchment paper.
In a bowl, whisk together almond flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
In another bowl, mix almond milk, applesauce, and granulated sweetener until smooth.
Combine wet and dry ingredients, stirring until just mixed.
Divide batter evenly between the cake pans and bake for 25-30 minutes, until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
Cool cakes in pans for 10 minutes, then transfer to wire racks to cool completely.
Once cooled, layer one cake with cherry pie filling and place the second cake on top.
Garnish with light whipped topping, fresh cherries, and a sprinkle of unsweetened cocoa powder or chocolate shavings.
