Ingredients

  • 2 cups almond flour
  • 2 teaspoons ground ginger
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 cup erythritol sweetener
  • 1 cup butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 8 ounces cream cheese
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 teaspoon gelatin powder
  • 2 tablespoons water

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, 1 teaspoon of ground ginger, 1/2 teaspoon of ground cinnamon, and 1/2 cup of erythritol sweetener.

Step 3

Melt 1/2 cup of butter and add it to the dry ingredients. Mix until a crumbly dough forms.

Step 4

Press the almond flour mixture evenly into the bottom of the prepared baking pan to form the crust.

Step 5

Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 10 minutes or until golden brown. Let it cool completely.

Step 6

In a small bowl, sprinkle the gelatin powder over 2 tablespoons of water and let it sit to bloom.

Step 7

Meanwhile, in a saucepan over low heat, combine the remaining 1/2 cup of erythritol sweetener, 1/2 cup of butter, and the vanilla extract. Stir until smooth and well combined.

Step 8

Add the cream cheese to the saucepan and stir continuously until the cream cheese is melted and the mixture is smooth.

Step 9

Add the gelatin to the saucepan and stir until it is completely dissolved.

Step 10

Remove the saucepan from heat and let the mixture cool slightly.

Step 11

In a separate mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form.

Step 12

Gently fold the whipped cream into the cooled cream cheese mixture until well combined.

Step 13

Pour the filling over the cooled crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.

Step 14

Refrigerate the ginger slice for at least 2 hours, or until set.

Step 15

Once set, remove from the pan using the parchment paper and cut into 16 slices.

Step 16

Serve chilled and enjoy your low carb ginger slice!
