Ingredients

  • 1.5 cups almond flour
  • 0.25 cup coconut flour
  • 0.5 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1.5 teaspoons baking soda
  • 0.25 teaspoon sea salt
  • 4 large eggs
  • 0.5 cup maple syrup
  • 0.5 cup coconut oil, melted and cooled
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 0.5 cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 0.75 cup dark chocolate chips (paleo-friendly)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8-inch round cake pan with some coconut oil and line the bottom with parchment paper for easy removal.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, sift together the almond flour, coconut flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and sea salt. Set the dry ingredients aside.

Step 3

In another bowl, whisk the eggs until frothy. Add in the maple syrup, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract, and mix until smooth.

Step 4

Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients while continuing to whisk. Mix until you get a smooth, thick batter.

Step 5

Slowly add the almond milk to the batter and stir to combine. The batter should be thick but pourable.

Step 6

Fold the dark chocolate chips into the batter, ensuring they are evenly distributed.

Step 7

Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top with a spatula.

Step 8

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

Step 9

Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 10

Optional: Dust with extra cocoa powder or serve with fresh berries for a tasty presentation.
