Keto tres leches cake ile ilgili görsel sonucu

 Tres leches cake is one of the most popular desserts in Latin America. This keto version of the classic sponge cake soaked in a delicious cream-based sauce and topped with whipped cream is even quicker and easier to make than the original! Perfect for special occasions.

Ingredients

Cake
  • 3 eggs
  • 3½ oz. almond flour
  • 1 tbsp coconut flour
  • 2 tbsp heavy whipping cream
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp cream of tartar
  • 3½ oz. erythritol
  • unsalted butter to grease the baking dish
Sauce
  • ½ cup heavy whipping cream
  • ½ cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 2½ tbsp powdered erythritol
  • 1 tbsp vanilla extract
  • 1 pinch salt
  • ¼ tsp xanthan gum
Cream
  • ½ cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1 tsp cream cheese at room temperature
  • 2 tsp powdered erythritol
To serve
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon

Instructions

Cake

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine all the ingredients to the cake. Mix until well-combined.
  2. Grease a 6" x 9" (16 x 21 cm) glass baking dish or a microwave-proof dish at least 2.5" (6.5 cm) deep.
  3. Pour the batter into the dish, smoothing the top to make sure you have an even layer of mixture.
  4. Microwave on medium-high (around 600 W) for 3.5 minutes (cook times will vary depending upon the microwave wattage; it could require more time!). Remove from the microwave. Check that the cake is cooked in the center. If necessary, return to the microwave for 20 seconds. Continue this process until the cake center is cooked. Allow to cool at room temperature and do not remove the cake from the dish.

Sauce

  1. While the cake is cooking in the microwave, mix together the ingredients for the sauce and stir until the erythritol dissolves. Set aside.

Assembly

  1. Once the cake has cooled to room temperature, use a fork to poke evenly spaced holes over the top of the cake. Pour the sauce over the entire surface of the cake. Refrigerate for at least two hours or overnight, allowing the cake to absorb the sauce.

Whipped Cream

  1. Combine the ingredients for the whipped cream and beat with an electric mixer until the mixture forms peaks (around 2 minutes). Take care not to beat more than necessary or it will turn into butter!
  2. Cover the cake with the whipped cream. Dust with ground cinnamon just before serving.

Tips

If you don't have any cream of tartar (a white powder used in baking), you can use lemon juice. Use half the amount of lemon juice than you would have cream of tartar.
Why use the tiny amount of cream cheese in the whipped cream? It's because if you are not going to serve the dish straight away, the cream cheese helps to keep the whipped cream smooth and fluffy for longer.
Want To Lose Weight With Keto Diet ?
Without a doubt, weight loss is the primary goal of the keto diet. It works because it makes the body look to its fat reserves to power its metabolism. It can be interesting to go deeper into the process, however.
When the body is deprived of carbs, it enters a state of ketosis. Blood sugar and insulin levels fall when that happens. As the body taps the energy in fat cells, they release considerable quantities of water, making for some great weight loss. The fat cells are then able to enter the bloodstream and make their way to the liver, where they are turned into ketones for energy processing. As long as your diet allows you to stay in a caloric deficit, you get to enjoy the weight loss benefits of the keto diet.

Advice From 42 Year Old Woman Who Lost 80 Pounds in 8 Months

I’m Jenny, and I’m 42 years young! Here’s how an ancient secret tea recipe helped me drop 6 dress sizes in just 8 months. I’d like to share a personal story that I know will resonate with you… My first vivid memory of being told I was overweight was at a doctor’s office when I was 14. I had a doctor who spoke angrily at Mom in front of me, telling her that she had failed as a mother for letting me get this big. And that I needed to go on a diet immediately. I could not blame Mom entirely for my weight gain. Dad left us both when I was 11. With mom having to work long hours to support us, meals came from fast food joints and in the form of tv dinners. I never did lose weight and continued the struggle well into adulthood. As an adult, the extra weight made me sick, frequently experiencing symptoms that include: knee, back and joint pains prolonged dull headaches difficulty concentrating waking up feeling tired even after sleeping 8 hours easily getting upse...

Losing 120 Pounds with Keto and The Right Mindset

Name: Suzanne Ryan Age: 33 Height: 5’11” Pre-keto weight: 289 lbs (131 kg) Current weight: 170 lbs (77 kg) For years, she struggled with obesity and the anxiety, depression, and hopelessness that accompanied it. “I was actually pretty thin up until middle school,” Suzanne remembers. “But after my parents divorced and my brother and I ended up living with my father, I was dealing with a lot of emotional issues, and food became a source of comfort.” Moreover, the food that was available to her had little nutritional value. As busy man with limited financial resources, Suzanne’s father often took the family to McDonald’s, pizza, and other fast food places. “I also drank soda all the time. It was our main beverage. We didn’t even really drink water,” she recalls. “My dad and brother ate all the same stuff I did and stayed thin, but by about fifth or sixth grade, I began to really put on weight,” says Suzanne. “It was really tough, because not only was I taller than all of ...
