Ingredients

• 180 g Almond flour
• 100 g Sugar-free amaretti cookies, crushed
• 100 g Erythritol or keto-friendly granular sweetener
• 120 ml Unsweetened almond milk
• 4 large Eggs
• 80 ml Coconut oil, melted
• 1 tsp Baking powder
• 1 tsp Vanilla extract
• 0.5 tsp Salt
• 30 g Crushed almonds or slivered almonds (optional, for topping)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 175°C (350°F) and grease a 9-inch (23 cm) springform pan with a thin layer of coconut oil or line it with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, whisk together the almond flour, crushed sugar-free amaretti cookies, erythritol, baking powder, and salt until evenly combined.

Step 3

In a separate large mixing bowl, beat the eggs using a whisk or electric hand mixer until lightly frothy, about 1-2 minutes.

Step 4

Stir in the melted coconut oil, unsweetened almond milk, and vanilla extract into the beaten eggs until smooth.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, folding gently with a rubber spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Avoid overmixing.

Step 6

Pour the batter into the prepared springform pan, spreading it evenly. If desired, sprinkle crushed almonds or slivered almonds over the top for added texture.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 8

Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then carefully remove the springform ring and transfer the cake to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 9

Slice the cake into 8 pieces and serve. Enjoy as-is or with a dollop of unsweetened whipped cream or a small drizzle of keto-friendly chocolate syrup, if desired.
