flourless spiced vanilla collagen cake with coconut yogurt + fresh peaches




this is a dream of a treat. in fact, i enjoyed it for dinner 2 days in a row. (:

note: this would be a perfect replacement for traditional white/yellow cake.

in a blender, add 3/4 c raw organic coconut butter + 1 c raw organic macadamia nuts (raw organic cashews work too) and blend until buttery smooth. add to a large bowl and mix in:
1/2 t baking soda
2 organic local pasture raised eggs
1/4 c organic vanilla collagen protein
1/4 t high quality sea salt
cinnamon, nutmeg, cardamom, cloves, & ginger to taste (i like a lot of spice!)
few drops of organic vanilla stevia to taste
-mix well.

preheat oven to 350°F & line a 6” springform pan with parchment paper. pour batter in pan and smooth over evenly. bake for 20-30 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean and the edges turn golden. cool completely, then remove from pan, spread yogurt of choice over top and line with fresh sliced local peaches + whatever else your heart desires. i added raw cacao beans + goji.


store in fridge in an airtight container.
