Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp almond flour
  • 1 tbsp cocoa powder
  • 1 tbsp Sukrin :1 (Swerve or Lakanto)
  • 1/4 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tbsp mayonnaise (use sour cream in a pinch)
  • 1 large egg yolk
  • 1 tsp water

Instructions

CAUTION:

  • Be very careful using only stevia to sweeten chocolate baked goods. The bitter compounds in stevia and the bitter compounds in chocolate have a synergistic effect, making your treat terribly bitter!

Preparation:

  • Fluff up the almond flour with a whisk before measuring and sift the cocoa powder if it's clumpy. (I sift any cocoa powder I buy and keep it in an air-tight container. This breaks apart any lumps for more accurate measuring.)

Method:

  • Measure the dry ingredients into a mug or jelly jar and mix completely with a fork.
  • Add the mayonnaise, egg yolk, and water, stirring completely making sure to get it all from the bottom. Let batter sit 1-2 minutes.  
  • Microwave for 50 seconds, depending on your microwave. 3 Net Carbs.
  • NOTE: Although the texture is a little different, 1 large egg white can be used instead of the large egg yolk, solving the problem of a leftover egg white.
