Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Almond flour
• 0.5 cup Cocoa powder (unsweetened)
• 1 teaspoon Baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoon Sea salt
• 3 large Eggs
• 0.5 cup Unsweetened applesauce
• 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 0.25 cup Coconut oil (melted and cooled)
• 0.33 cup Stevia or monk fruit sweetener (granulated)
• 0.25 cup Unsweetened almond milk
• 0.25 cup Dark chocolate chips (sugar-free, optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease an 8-inch round or square baking pan with coconut oil or line it with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and sea salt until evenly combined.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, beat the eggs until frothy. Then add the unsweetened applesauce, vanilla extract, melted coconut oil, and stevia or monk fruit sweetener. Whisk until smooth.

Step 4

Gradually add the wet ingredients to the bowl of dry ingredients, stirring together until a smooth batter forms.

Step 5

Carefully mix in the unsweetened almond milk until the batter reaches a pourable consistency. If using sugar-free dark chocolate chips, fold them into the batter now.

Step 6

Pour the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan and smooth out the surface with a spatula.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.

Step 8

Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 9

Slice and serve the cake as is, or top with sugar-free whipped cream or a drizzle of melted sugar-free chocolate, if desired.
