Ingredients

• 1 cup Grated cassava
• 1 cup Coconut milk
• 0.5 cup Unsweetened desiccated coconut
• 0.5 cup Erythritol or any low-carb sweetener
• 0.25 cup Unsalted butter, melted
• 2 pieces Large eggs
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease an 8x8 inch baking pan with butter or cooking spray.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the grated cassava, coconut milk, unsweetened desiccated coconut, erythritol, melted butter, eggs, vanilla extract, and salt.

Step 3

Mix all the ingredients together with a whisk or spatula until well combined and smooth.

Step 4

Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.

Step 5

Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for about 45-50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the edges are crisp.

Step 6

To check for doneness, insert a toothpick into the center of the cake; if it comes out clean, the cake is ready.

Step 7

Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes.

Step 8

Once slightly cooled, cut the cake into squares and serve warm or at room temperature.

Step 9

Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
