Very Low-Carb Keto Lava Mini-Cake - [Quick Recipes]
The first time I saw this recipe on the Tasteaholics youtube channel, I knew that I'd do it very soon. So, it only took 2 or 3 days to get on with it.
The beauty of it? It requires very few ingredients, it takes little time to prep and it's so simple that anyone can do it. So, here's what you need:
- 7g unsweetened cocoa powder
- 15g erythritol
- 4g baking powder
- 1 whole egg
- 20g heavy cream (liquid)
- 1g vanilla extract
Steps:
- Mix the cocoa with erythritol and baking powder.
- Beat the egg, mix in the heavy cream and vanilla extract.
- Mix together the dry and wet ingredients until reaching the desired consistency.
- Pour into a muffin mold and put it in the preheated oven at 180 degrees Celsius for 15-20 minutes.
If you leave it for 15 minutes, the center may be more jelly-like. If you leave it for more than 20 minutes, the center may cook entirely and may be drier. The macros for the entire recipe are:
Energy: 158.3 kcals
Fat: 12.9 grams
Protein: 8.2 grams
Carbohydrates : 2.3 grams
I guess you could do this in the microwave oven too, but I haven't tried that yet. May as well try in the future. I think it might be trickier to get a 'just-right' center. If anyone has done it already and succeeded, please report immediately! :)

Hi, Cristi!
Lave cake is one of my favorite dessert, I recommend you to prepare it also with white chocolate, it's delicious.
Ill see how that can be done with very few carbs.
Going to use whey protein chocolate flavour instead of this, to up that protein macro :D
Good idea. You might reduce the carbohydrate that way too.
It looks very simple to make, but it also looks super delicious, I'll try the recipe friend, I really liked it, a hug and good content brother!
thanks!
Excellent post, usually when I see a recipe for something that looks very good I do not read it because it sure requires complicated ingredients to get, but this really looks simple and the result is quite promising so it is most likely to encourage me to try, thanks for sharing.
