I came across this recipe from a lovely lady on Instagram (do check out her account if you use IG – @skinnycakesnbakes). She makes the most amazing low syn cakes and bakes!
Makes: 16 slices
Syns: 15.5 syns for the whole cake
Time Taken: around 60 minutes
Difficulty: Moderate
Ingredients
- 37g coconut flour
- 5 large eggs, separated
- 2 tbsp sweetener
- 1 tsp coconut essence
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 3 tbsp water
- 2 tbsp raspberry jam
- 15g dessicated coconut
Method
Pre heat the oven to gas mark 4.
Sift together the flour and baking powder. Add the egg yolks, sweetener, most of the coconut (keep some aside to decorate the cake), essence and water. Mix it altogether.
Whisk the egg whites until stiff and gently fold into the mixture.
Pour the mixture into a square 7/8 inch lined cake tin and bake for 30 minutes.
Once cooled, spread over the jam and sprinkle the remaining coconut.
