Ingredients

  • 1 cup almond flour
  • 1/4 cup coconut flour
  • 1/4 cup vanilla whey protein powder
  • 1/4 cup erythritol
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 1/4 cup sugar-free strawberry jam
  • 1/4 cup cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup powdered erythritol

Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

  2. 2

    Whisk together almond flour, coconut flour, protein powder, erythritol, and salt in a large bowl.

  3. 3

    Stir in melted butter, egg, and almond milk until a dough forms.

  4. 4

    Divide the dough into two equal parts and roll each into a rectangle about 1/4 inch thick.

  5. 5

    Spread strawberry jam over one rectangle, keeping a border around the edges.

  6. 6

    Place the other rectangle on top, press edges to seal, and pierce a few times with a fork.

  7. 7

    Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden. Cool on a wire rack.

  8. 8

    Beat cream cheese, heavy cream, vanilla extract, and powdered erythritol until smooth for frosting. Spread over cooled cake before slicing and serving.

Chef's tip

Ensure the dough is not too sticky before rolling; chilling can help if needed.
