Description
Indulge in this decadent Keto Peppercorn Sauce Peanut Butter Chocolate Lava Mug Cake, a perfect dessert for keto enthusiasts.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1/4 cup almond flour
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons granulated erythritol or your favorite keto-friendly sweetener
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk
- 2 tablespoons sugar-free peanut butter
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon sugar-free chocolate chips (optional)
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon whole black peppercorns
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- Salt to taste
Instructions
- In a microwave-safe mug, whisk together the almond flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, salt, and erythritol until well blended.
- Incorporate the egg, almond milk, peanut butter, and vanilla extract into the dry mixture, stirring until smooth. If you like, mix in the chocolate chips for an extra treat.
- Microwave the mixture for 30 to 60 seconds, checking at the 30-second mark to see if it’s cooked through. The center should remain soft and slightly molten.
- Meanwhile, prepare the spicy cream sauce by heating heavy cream and whole black peppercorns in a small saucepan over medium heat. Allow it to simmer gently for 2-3 minutes.
- Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the butter until it’s fully melted. Season with salt to your liking.
- Once the lava cake is ready, carefully take it out of the microwave. Drizzle the spicy cream sauce over the top and savor the delightful combination right away.
Notes
- For an added twist, consider mixing in a dash of cinnamon to the batter.
- If you prefer coconut flour, reduce the amount to 2 tablespoons, as it absorbs moisture differently.
