Ingredients

For the shortcake:

  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 ½ cups almond flour
  • ¼ cup coconut flour
  • cup monk fruit sweetener
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon Kosher salt
  • cup unsalted butter melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For the topping:

  • 2 cups heavy whipping cream
  • 2 tablespoons monk fruit sweetener
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 cup sliced strawberries

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Gather all the tools and ingredients for this recipe.
  • Wash and slice the strawberries.
  • Melt the cold butter.

Cooking Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease or line a muffin tin.
  • In a bowl, mix the almond flour, coconut flour, monk fruit sweetener, baking powder, and salt. This is an important step as the almond flour tends to clump, so it must be broken up.
  • Whisk together the melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract in another bowl.
  • Combine the wet and dry ingredients until the batter forms.
  • Divide the flour mixture into the muffin tin slots and bake for 15-20 minutes until golden. Run a knife around the edges of the muffins while they are warm if you have not used muffin cups.
  • Allow the shortcakes to cool before slicing them horizontally.
  • Whip the heavy cream with erythritol and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.
  • Assemble by placing a layer of whipped cream and sliced strawberries on the bottom half of each shortcake and topping with the other half.
  • Garnish with more whipped cream and sweet strawberries.
