Keto Carrot Cake Roll

Ingredients:

• For the cake:
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup almond flour
  • 1/4 cup coconut flour
  • 1/2 cup erythritol (or any keto-friendly sweetener)
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/2 cup finely grated carrots
  • 1/4 cup melted coconut oil (or butter)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt
• For the cream cheese filling:
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup powdered erythritol (or other sweetener)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9×13-inch baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Make the Cake:
   • In a mixing bowl, beat the eggs and sweetener together until light and fluffy.
   • Add the melted coconut oil and vanilla extract, then mix until combined.
   • In a separate bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and salt.
   • Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, mixing until smooth.
   • Stir in the grated carrots.
3. Bake the Cake:
   • Pour the cake batter onto the prepared baking sheet and spread it evenly.
   • Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the cake is firm to the touch and lightly golden.
4. Roll the Cake:
   • Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool for 5 minutes.
   • Lay a clean kitchen towel on a flat surface and sprinkle with a little powdered erythritol.
   • Once the cake is slightly cooled, invert it onto the towel. Gently peel off the parchment paper.
   • Roll the cake up with the towel inside, and let it cool completely.
5. Prepare the Cream Cheese Filling:
   • While the cake is cooling, beat the softened cream cheese, powdered erythritol, vanilla extract, and salt together until smooth and fluffy.
6. Assemble the Cake Roll:
   • Once the cake has cooled, unroll it carefully.
   • Spread the cream cheese filling evenly over the entire surface of the cake.
   • Gently roll the cake back up without the towel.
7. Serve:
   • Slice the cake roll into pieces and serve. You can garnish with a sprinkle of cinnamon or a few extra grated carrots for decoration.
