Ingredients:
- 1 cup Unsalted Butter, softened
- 1 ¼ cups Granulated Low-Carb Sweetener (e.g., Erythritol/Monk Fruit blend)
- 5 Large Eggs, room temperature
- ½ cup Full-Fat Canned Coconut Cream
- 1 Tbsp Pure Vanilla Extract
- 1 tsp Coconut Extract (optional, for intense flavour)
- 2 cups Superfine Almond Flour
- ½ cup Coconut Flour
- 2 tsp Baking Powder
- 1 tsp Xanthan Gum
- ½ tsp Fine Sea Salt
- ½ cup Unsweetened Shredded Coconut
- 1 cup Powdered Low-Carb Sweetener (for glaze, sifted)
- 3 – 5 Tbsp Heavy Cream (or thin coconut milk, for glaze)
- ½ tsp Coconut Extract (for glaze)
Instructions:
- Preheat the oven to 175°C (350°F). Thoroughly grease the 10 to 12-cup Bundt pan, ensuring every crevice is coated. Dust the greased pan heavily with coconut flour, tapping out the excess.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, xanthan gum, and salt. Set aside.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, cream the softened butter and granulated sweetener on medium speed until light and fluffy (3–4 minutes). Scrape down the bowl frequently.
- Beat in the eggs, one at a time. Add the coconut cream, vanilla extract, and coconut extract. Mix until just combined.
- Gradually add the reserved dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing on low speed until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Gently fold in the shredded coconut. Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared Bundt pan and use the back of a spoon to press the batter firmly against the bottom and sides of the pan to eliminate air pockets.
- Bake for 45–50 minutes. The cake is done when a wooden skewer inserted near the center comes out clean. If the top browns too quickly, loosely cover the pan with foil after 35 minutes.
- Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for exactly 10 minutes. Place a wire rack over the top of the pan and carefully invert the cake.
- Allow the cake to cool completely on the wire rack (about 20 minutes) before proceeding to glazing.
- Prepare Glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together the sifted powdered sweetener, heavy cream (starting with 3 Tbsp), and coconut extract. Add more liquid slowly until you reach a thick but pourable consistency.
- Drizzle the glaze generously over the cooled cake. Allow the glaze to set before slicing and serving.
