Coconut flour chocolate cake

Recently I was wondering what to do with my coconut flour. I bought a package long time ago and realize that as of then, I cooked with it just once and that was actually really bad buy for me. Bad but expensive… so, I looked all over the internet for something easy and of course – tasty. I have found something interesting in one of the numerous health web sites over the internet, with author Ambitious kitchen. I have changed couple of things in it (basically because I didn’t have some of the ingredients, but mostly – because I was following my intuition 🙂 ) and ended with a great result.

So, here are my ingredients for this healthy cake with lots of love 🙂 

  • 1/4 tea cup butter (~70-80 grams) – 3-4 BGN for a 250 grams package
  • 3 tablespoons honey – 7 to 10 BGN for a kilo jar
  • 2-3 pinches of vanilla – up to 1 BGN for a 10 pinch package
  • 2 eggs – 2 to 4 BGN for 6 to 12 eggs pack
  • 3/4 tea cup of milk (~150-170 grams) – 3-4 BGN for a kilo bottle
  • half tea cup coconut flour (~120-130 grams) – 10 to 15 BGN per package
  • half teaspoon of baking powder – up to 1 BGN for a package (~20 tea spoons spoons)
  • pinch of salt – 2 BGN for a kilo bottle
  • dark chocolate (minimum 75%) – 2-4 BGN for a piece
  • half tea cup coconut rasp (~120-130 grams) – up to 2-3 BGN per 300 grams package

It is not rocket science how to mix those ingredients, but here are my steps:

  1. Crumble the eggs together with the butter, milk, vanilla, honey and the baking powder. 
  2. Put the salt and the coconut rasp to the mixture and mix.
  3. Chop the chocolate into the chopper into medium size pieces and gather it with the mixture above.
  4. In the end add the coconut flour. 
  5. Bake approximately 40 minutes (or till brown) and enjoy.

In my case, it was actually an adventure to save some pieces to photo them before Daniel ate them all 🙂 And… Merry Christmas!
