GRAIN FREE WHITE CAKE {LOW CARB}

I am not a big cake fan (ice cream is another story altogether). However, on occasion, I do enjoy a slice of white cake topped with berries and loads of homemade whipped cream. This low carb grain free white cake  is perfect for making such a treat. This is a cake recipe I make quite often.


It does not contain any grains, dairy, or sugar. As a sweetener, I like to use a blend of erythritol and liquid stevia.


Note: I do not use stevia when I make the cake for my husband. He says he can taste it and HATES it. I have tried putting just a few drops, but he can usually tell. :/ He says it has a bitter aftertaste. You can leave the stevia, out and add a bit more erythritol if you do not find the cake sweet enough.  You can also replace the erythritol with xylitol (a natural granulated sugar) or plain white sugar if you prefer.

Note: I buy my supplies from Amazon, Vitacost, or iHerb. (The last two being my favorites.)

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

In a bowl: place the coconut flour,  salt, baking soda, and erythritol (or xylitol/granulated sugar substitute of your choice). Mix with a whisk until no lumps are left.

In another bowl: combine the coconut oil, vanilla extract, butter extract (if using), liquid vanilla stevia, two egg yolks, and three whole eggs. Mix with your whisk until well combined.

Incorporate the dry ingredients with the wet ingredients and mix until well combined. At this point, your batter will be very thick.

With a hand mixer, beat the remaining two egg whites into soft peaks and gently incorporate them into the batter.

Grease an 8-inch cake pan (I like to use a springform pan for ease).

Place a piece of parchment paper in the bottom.

Pour the batter into your prepared cake pan.

Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until an inserted skewer comes out clean. Do not over-bake or the cake will be quite dry.

Let cool for 15 minutes before removing.

Makes one cake with 12 slices.
