Now you can have your cake and eat it! This is great for anyone who is trying to reduce their carb intake, is gluten intolerant or those of us who just like cake.
It has no refined sugar and because I've used almond flour it also packs a protein punch. It's moist, light and utterly delicious!
Ingredients
- 200g Frozen blueberries and raspberries
- 140g Almond flour
- 60g Coconut flour
