Description
Delightful fluffy strawberry shortcake cups that are perfect for any occasion!
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1/4 cup coconut flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup erythritol or your preferred keto sweetener
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 3 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it lightly.
- In a large bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and erythritol. Mix well.
- In another bowl, whisk together melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
- While the cakes are cooling, whip the heavy cream in a mixing bowl until soft peaks form.
- In a separate bowl, toss the sliced strawberries with lemon juice and let them sit for 5-10 minutes to release their juices.
- To assemble, cut each cake in half horizontally. Layer whipped cream and strawberries between the cake halves and on top.
Notes
- For a richer flavor, try adding a teaspoon of almond extract to the batter.
- You can also substitute the strawberries with raspberries or blueberries for a different berry shortcake.
- Serve with pork rinds or cucumber slices for a crunchy side option.
