Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup Almond flour
  • 2 tbsp Coconut flour
  • 5 large Eggs
  • ½ cup Erythritol
  • 1 tsp Baking powder
  • 1 tsp Vanilla extract
  • 1 cup Heavy cream
  • ½ cup Unsweetened almond milk
  • ½ cup Sugar-free condensed milk
  • 1 cup Whipped cream

Equipment

  • 1 Mixing bowls
  • 1 Electric hand mixer
  • 1 Baking dish (8x8 inch)
  • 1 Whisk
  • 1 Spatula
  • 1 Measuring Cups & Spoons

Method
 

  1. Prepare the Batter: Beat the eggs and erythritol until light and frothy. Mix in the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder and vanilla. Mix until smooth and lump-free.
  2. Bake the Sponge: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Pour mixture into greased 8x8 inch baking dish. Bake until a toothpick comes out clean, about 25 minutes. Let it cool completely.
  3. Make the Milk Mixture: In a medium bowl, combine heavy cream, unsweetened almond milk, and sugar-free condensed milk until combined.
  4. Soak the Cake: Pierce the cooled sponge with a fork all over. Gradually drizzle the milk mixture on top, letting it absorb evenly.
  5. Add the Topping: Cover the refrigerated cake with whipped cream. 2 hours in the fridge and you've got creamy perfection!

Notes

  • One should never soak the sponge so hot that it is broken.
  • Cold eggs will keep this gloriously lofty bread from rising as high.
  • You may also add a dash of cinnamon or nutmeg for additional flavor.
  • Refrigerate before serving, for a firmer, creamier texture.
  • Refrigerate leftovers up to 3 days.
