INGREDIENTS
2 egg whites (66g total)
40g almond flour
1/4 cup plain nonfat Greek yogurt (60g)
1 scoop vanilla whey protein powder (30g)
1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk (60ml)
1/8 cup soaked cashews (15g) for frosting
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 vanilla bean (seeds scraped)
Dash of stevia
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a small cake pan or ramekin.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg whites, Greek yogurt, unsweetened almond milk, and the scraped seeds from half a vanilla bean until well combined.
In a separate bowl, combine the almond flour, vanilla whey protein powder, and baking powder. Mix well.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until the batter is smooth. Add a dash of stevia to your taste preference.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top. Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
While the cake is baking, prepare the cashew frosting. In a blender, combine the soaked cashews with a tiny splash of water and a pinch of stevia, blending until silky smooth.
Allow the cake to cool for a few minutes after baking, then spread the cashew frosting evenly on top before serving.
