Ingredients

• 200 grams Almond flour
• 30 grams Coconut flour
• 100 grams Powdered erythritol or stevia (sugar substitute)
• 100 grams Unsalted butter, melted
• 4 large Eggs
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 4 medium Plums, pitted and sliced
• 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
• 50 grams Chopped walnuts (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and grease a 9-inch round or square cake pan with butter or line it with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a medium mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, powdered erythritol, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt. Stir well to evenly distribute the dry ingredients.

Step 3

In a separate large bowl, whisk together the melted butter, eggs, vanilla extract, and lemon zest until smooth and well combined.

Step 4

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until a thick batter forms. If you are using chopped walnuts, fold them into the batter at this step.

Step 5

Pour half of the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth it out evenly. Arrange half of the sliced plums on top of the batter in a single layer.

Step 6

Spread the remaining batter over the plums, smoothing it gently with a spatula. Arrange the remaining sliced plums on top, slightly pressing them into the batter for decoration.

Step 7

Bake the cake in the preheated oven for 35–40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the top is golden brown.

Step 8

Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 9

Slice the cooled cake into 8 pieces and serve. Enjoy as a dessert or afternoon snack with coffee or tea!
