  • 1/4 cup Coconut Flour
  • 3/4 cup Golden Monk Fruit Sweetener
  • 1 tbsp Baking Powder
  • 1/2 tsp Xanthan Gum

For the Caramel Cream

  • 8 oz Mascarpone Cheese, Cold
  • 1 1/2 cups Heavy Whipping Cream, Cold
  • 1/2 cup Powdered Erythritol Monk Fruit Sweetener
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 1/2 tsp Flaky Sea Salt, For Topping

Equipment

  • electric mixer
  • 8-inch cake pans

Instructions
 

  • Start with the caramel so it has time to cool. Melt the butter and allulose in a saucepan over medium heat and cook, stirring often, for 4-5 minutes until deep golden amber.
    Carefully whisk in the heavy cream, as it will bubble up. Simmer on low for 4-6 minutes until it coats the back of a spoon, then stir in the vanilla extract and sea salt. Pour into a jar and cool completely. It will thicken as it cools.
  • Preheat the oven to 325°F (165°C). Grease two 8-inch round cake pans and line the bottoms with parchment paper. Whisk together the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, xanthan gum and salt.
  • In a large bowl, beat the softened butter and golden sweetener for 2-3 minutes until fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then mix in the sour cream, almond milk and vanilla extract. Add the dry ingredients and mix on low just until combined.
  • Divide the batter between the pans and smooth the tops. Bake for 25-30 minutes, until golden and a toothpick comes out clean. Cool in the pans for 15 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack and cool completely.
  • For the caramel cream, add the cold mascarpone, cold heavy cream, powdered sweetener, vanilla extract and 1/4 cup of the cooled caramel to a large bowl. Beat on low for 30 seconds, then on medium-high for 2-3 minutes until stiff peaks form.
  • Place one cake layer on a serving plate and spread with about one third of the caramel cream. Drizzle with 2 tbsp of the caramel, then add the second cake layer.
  • Cover the top and sides with the remaining cream. Drizzle the rest of the caramel over the top, sprinkle with flaky sea salt and chill for at least 1 hour before slicing.
