In reply to Marilyn. If the coconut flour is used with almond flour, replacing with almond flour is fine. But if it’s a coconut flour only recipe, other changes are likely needed.

Hi Lisa, love your recipes. In many of your recipes, it calls for coconut flour. My autistic grandson is ultra picky, and if hedetects coconut, will not eat it. With the
At said, onthis recipe, can I just use the almond flour in its place? Thank you. Marilyn

In reply to Constance Hegel. You can ignore the carbs in Swerve as they come from erythritol which has been shown not to impact. It's only an issue if you are sensitive to the sweetener.

based on the carb content in swerve, just the frosting per slice is 10 net carbs

In reply to Natasha. You can. I'd recommend either another protein powder like collagen or just use some extra almond flour.

Hi! Looks awesome! The butter that is used in the cake (not the frosting): Should that be room temperature, softened, or melted? Thanks very much.

In reply to John. I'd reduce the amount of coconut flour to make it less crumbly. Coconut flour can vary quite a bit.

Frosting is amazing although you will need way more than 3 tbs of cream. The cake is a little too dry and crumbly. When making the batter it doesn't pour like regular cake. You have to spread it like a pan cookie dough. Will play around with it to improve this recipe.
