Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup strawberries (chopped)
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon erythritol
- 1/2 cup water
- 1/2 cup butter (unsalted, softened)
- 1/2 cup erythritol
- 4 eggs (separated)
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup coconut flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup water
- 1 cup mascarpone cheese
- 1 cup cream (whipping)
- 2 tablespoons erythritol, ground
- 2 cups strawberries (sliced)
Instructions
- Prepare the strawberry mixture by combining chopped strawberries with lemon juice and erythritol; let sit for 10 minutes.
- In a mixing bowl, beat softened butter with erythritol until creamy. Add egg yolks one at a time and stir in vanilla extract.
- Combine coconut flour, baking powder, and salt in another bowl, then gradually mix into the butter mixture with water until smooth.
- Beat egg whites until stiff peaks form and gently fold them into the batter. Pour into a greased baking dish and bake at 350°F (175°C) for about 25 minutes or until golden brown.
- While the cake cools, whip the cream until soft peaks form. Mix mascarpone with ground erythritol and vanilla extract, then fold in whipped cream until smooth.
- Once cooled, slice the cake into layers and assemble by alternating layers of cake, strawberry mixture, and cream layer in a serving dish.
- Chill for at least one hour before serving to allow flavors to meld.
