Ingredients
• The “Cuppa” Flourless Base: 1 cup Almond Flour (replaces the self-rising flour).
• The “Cuppa” Sweetener: 1 cup Monk Fruit or Erythritol (replaces the white sugar).
• The “Cuppa” Fruit: 1 cup Fruit Cocktail (canned in water or juice with no added sugar) or fresh berries.
• The Lift: 1 tsp Baking Powder and a pinch of Sea Salt (to mimic the self-rising effect).
Preparation Steps
1. The Mix: In a large glass bowl, combine your almond flour, sugar-free sweetener, baking powder, and salt.
2. Add the Magic: Stir in the cup of fruit (including the liquid from the can if using sugar-free canned fruit). Mix until a thick, fruity batter forms.
3. The Dish: Pour the mixture into a greased glass baking dish, just like the one featured in your picture.
4. Bake: Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 35–45 minutes. You are looking for the edges to pull away from the sides and the top to be a beautiful, rustic golden brown.
5. Serve: This cake is best served warm. For a professional, “steakhouse-quality” finish, top it with a dollop of sugar-free whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla keto ice cream.
