- 1/2 cup ghee (melted)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 4 cups almond flour
- 1/2 cup coconut flour
- 1 cup Monk Fruit Sweetener
- 2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp cream of tartar
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
Cinnamon Filling
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1/2 cup ghee (melted)
- 1/2 cup pecans
- 1 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/2 cup Golden Monk Fruit (see notes)
- Pinch of salt
Cinnamon Glaze
- 3/4 cup coconut cream
- 3 tbsp coconut butter
- 1/4 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 tsp lemon juice
- 2 1/2 tbsp Monk Fruit Syrup
- 1/4 tsp cinnamon
Instructions
- Prepare the Batter: In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, unsweetened apple sauce, coconut milk, melted ghee, and vanilla extract until smooth and combined.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, Monk Fruit Sweetener, cinnamon, salt, cream of tartar, and baking soda. Gradually add the dry mix into the wet ingredients, stirring until a uniform batter forms.
- Prepare Cinnamon Filling: Mix almond flour with melted ghee, chopped pecans, cinnamon, Golden Monk Fruit, and a pinch of salt in a small bowl until crumbly and combined enough to spread.
- Assemble the Cake: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a bundt cake pan with ghee or butter. Pour half of the batter into the pan. Spread the cinnamon filling evenly over the batter layer, then pour the remaining batter on top, smoothing the surface.
- Bake the Cake: Place the bundt pan in the preheated oven and bake for 45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Remove from oven and let cool completely before glazing.
- Make the Cinnamon Glaze: In a small saucepan, combine coconut cream, coconut butter, vanilla extract, lemon juice, Monk Fruit Syrup, and cinnamon. Heat gently over low heat, stirring until smooth and slightly thickened. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
- Glaze the Cake: Drizzle the cinnamon glaze evenly over the cooled bundt cake, allowing it to drip down the sides for a beautiful finish.
- Serve and Enjoy: Slice the cake into 12 servings and enjoy a flavorful, keto-friendly cinnamon treat perfect for any occasion.
