Mini Chocolate Cakes (Lupin Flour)

I have decided I love the texture of lupin flour and have been working on new recipes to include it. I have also decided I would like some smaller recipes for baked goods…no more than 2 days worth. Keto baked goods tend to lose some yum factor as they age, even with lupin flour. This is my first mini recipe and it offers a few different cooking vessels.

Mini Chocolate Cakes (Lupin Flour)

Ingredients

• 3 tbsp butter
• 1/4 cup lupin flour (fine ground)
• 2 tbsp cocoa powder
• 3 tbsp sweetener (+/- to taste)
• 1/2 tsp baking powder
• 1 egg, beaten
• 2 tbsp heavy cream (or milk sub of choice)
• 2 tbsp chocolate chips
• 2 tbsp nuts of choice (optional)

Steps

1. Preheat oven to 350
2. Melt butter in small bowl, cool for a minute or so
3. Add heavy cream, stir
4. Add in beaten egg and whisk well
5. Stir in all dry ingredients (except chocolate chips and nuts)
6. Add chocolate chips and nuts, give a quick stir (or save to use as topping)
7. Pour into 2 or 3 greased ramekins or 2 or 3 greased wells of a whoopie pie pan
8. Bake for 12 minutes for 3 or 15 minutes for 2, done when toothpick comes out clean. This can also be microwaved for about 60-90 seconds (Texture will not be the same)
9. Allow to cool 5 minute before removing from pan

Notes

• I think a muffin pan would work too, probably 3 or 4 muffins, probably about 17 minutes
