In reply to Cynthia J Aiken. My sweetener conversion calculator makes it easy. Just plug the numbers in.

Sounds delish! I don't use monk fruit drops, so how would I convert that measurement into granulated stevia?

In reply to Carrie C Henderson. Thanks for catching that! The first one should be almond flour so I fixed it.

I see that you use coconut flour twice is that correct because I don't see that you put it in twice in the directions for the cake thanks

In reply to Jessica. You'll likely need to add some liquid in place of the berries. Maybe try some almond or coconut milk?

Hello! I have been scouring the net for a simple, lower calorie mug cake recipe and this looks perfect! My current fav dessert is cake with berries and coconut whipped cream. Delish!!! and yes, I agree that sweeteners other than stevia and monkfruit cause me to have insane sugar cravings and I had to give them up. So far, stevia and monkfruit do not stall my progress, but Erythritol and Xylitol and sucralose definitely do.

Question though, if I wanted to eliminate the berries in the dish and just do like a vanilla cake instead, how much would the ingredients need to be adjusted, if any? I prefer plain cake with fruit and cream as toppings. I am going to attempt this recipe tonight but with blueberries instead. 🙂 Thanks for sharing! your recipes are great!

In reply to Nat. Thanks for the tip. I'll give that a try. I did see that McCormick now sells natural food dye in the local stores.

For red color try a little hibiscus tea. Just a little has a really rich deep red color.

In reply to Gyrfalcon. Do you mean glycerin? It is a carbohydrate that metabolizes so you need to be careful when using it.

In your discussion of sweeteners you failed to mention glycine. In the right context it can be absolutely amazing. It's in a completely
different category from sugar alcohols and fiber sweeteners.
