CAKE WET INGREDIENTS 4 large free-run eggs 1 cup coconut milk (unsweetened) ¼ cup grass-fed butter 2 tsp blackstrap molasses
PINK MYLK FROSTING INGREDIENTS 2 cups cashew cream cheese 1 cup powdered monk fruit sweetener 2 tbsp Organika MCT powder 2 tbsp Organika Pink Mylk Latté Powder 1tsp pure vanilla extract 1/2 tsp sea salt chilled bowl chilled whisk attachment
NOTE: You can find cashew cream-cheese at a health food store!
INSTRUCTION
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. – 1 HOUR + 15MIN
Start by greasing one loaf/ cake pan with grass-fed, or you may use coconut oil.
Line loaf pan with parchment paper.
Loaf pan Optimal size: 7”x 4”x 3” (L x W x H)
In a medium bowl, combined all dry ingredients, including the chocolate chips found in the Beauty Baking Mix.
Whisk everything together and set aside.
Melt butter, add the wet ingredients to the same bowl as your dry - For best results make sure wet ingredients are at room temperature.
Whisk everything together until you have a smooth and silky cake batter… Very important that your batter looks more on the liquidy side that thicker side; this is key to create the airier spongy texture cake!
Once you gingerbread loaf batter is done, pour the entire batter into loaf pan.
Pop into your pre-heated oven.
Bake cake loaf for one hour and 45min; depending on the oven & baking pan size...
Once the loaf cake is done, let cool to room temperature for at least 50min.
*To create a perfect cashew cream cheese frosting* you need your ingredients to be room temperature.
The next tip is to whip, whip, whip for a full 5-7 minutes until it gets a bit more volume.
Next, sift in monk fruit powder sugar, and a splash of pure vanilla extract; Whip again for another few minutes.
Lastly, a few tablespoons of coconut milk and add in Organika’s Pink Mylk Latte powder and MCT oil powder to create a paste. Add the paste into cashew cream cheese and beat again.NOTE, make sure it’s runny or it will deflate your frosting.
Once your ginger loaf is completely cooled to room temperature, it’s time to start dressing the loaf with that gorgeously pink rich keto cashew cream frosting. NOTE: if the cake is too warm your frosting will slide off.
To assemble the loaf, add a big dollop of frosting to the top of the loaf.
; Using an offset cake spatula, try to get the frosting close to the edge of the loaf.
Once it is done, plop the rest of your heavenly creamy frosting right on top and decorate it however you desire!
