Ingredients
  

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350 F degrees F.
  • Line the bottoms of two 8-inch round cake pans with parchment paper rounds, then spray with nonstick baking spray; set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine eggs, buttermilk, cooled butter, and vanilla extract. Mix until thoroughly combined.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the almond flour, coconut flour, cocoa powder, powdered erythritol, baking powder, and salt.
  • Add the dry ingredients to the wet and mix until well combined.
  • Divide the batter evenly between the prepared baking pans and bake for 20-25 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean.
  • Allow the cakes to cool completely in the pan (at least 30 minutes) before removing. Remove the parchment paper liner and frost as desired with Keto Chocolate Frosting.

Notes

  • Allow your ingredients to come to room temperature before mixing the batter.
  • Spoon the almond flour into the measuring cup, and then level it, rather than scooping in to the container.
  • Powdered sweetener will create a smoother batter.
