Instructions
Step 1
Cake
Step 2
Preheat the oven to 325F and grease 3 (three) 4-inch diameter ramekins very well.
Step 3
In a medium bowl, whisk together the almond flour, Swerve, chopped nuts, shredded coconut, baking powder, cinnamon, cloves, and salt.
Step 4
Stir in the shredded carrots, egg, butter and vanilla extract until well combined. If the batter is too thick to spread in the ramekins, add 2 teaspoons water.
Step 5
Divide evenly between the prepared ramekins and spread the batter to the edges. Bake 20 to 25 minutes, until the edges are golden brown and the cakes are firm to the touch.
Step 6
Remove and let cool in the ramekins, then run a sharp knife around the edges and loosen underneath with a thin rubber spatula. Flip out onto a wire rack.
Step 7
NOTE: You can do just two layers if you prefer. They will be thicker so they will take longer to cook through
Step 8
