  • Total Time: 50 minutes
  • Yield: 16 servings

Ingredients

  • Cinnamon Filling:
  • 3 tablespoons granulated sweetener (erythritol or allulose)
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • Cake:
  • 3 cups almond flour (336 g)
  • 1/2 cup erythritol sweetener (100 g)
  • 1/4 cup unflavored whey protein powder (27 g)
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup melted butter (113.5 g)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup almond milk or water (118.29 ml)
  • 1 tablespoon melted butter (for brushing top)
  • Cream Cheese Frosting:
  • 1 1/2 ounces softened cream cheese (44.13 g)
  • 2 tablespoons powdered sweetener (erythritol or allulose)
  • 1 tablespoon heavy whipping cream
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, mix the cinnamon and granulated sweetener. Set aside.
  2. Preheat oven to 325ºF and grease a 9×9-inch baking pan.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together the almond flour, erythritol, protein powder, baking powder, and salt.
  4. Stir in the eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Add almond milk or water, mixing until smooth.
  5. Spread half the batter into the prepared pan. Sprinkle two-thirds of the cinnamon mixture over the batter.
  6. Spread the remaining batter on top and smooth with a spatula.
  7. Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until the top is golden and firm to the touch.
  8. Remove from oven, brush with melted butter, and sprinkle with the remaining cinnamon mixture. Let cool completely.
  9. To make the frosting, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Add powdered sweetener, heavy cream, and vanilla extract, and beat until well combined.
  10. Pipe or drizzle the frosting over the cooled cake before serving.

Notes

  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
  • For a dairy-free version, substitute butter and cream cheese with plant-based alternatives.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting to prevent melting.
  • Use a sugar-free maple glaze instead of cream cheese for variation.
