Im excited to try this. I just want to make sure Im understanding right. It’s 1 Tablespoon of coconut flour OR (not plus) 3 Tablespoon of almond flour. Is this correct?

Correct!
Linda says
The cakes are so very good!!! Thank you for the recipe’s!! I wondering on the Analysis of the nutritional information do we subtract the fiber from the carbs to get the net amount of carbs or have you already done that?
Thank you so much !!!

Daphyne says
Yes, Linda. You subtract the fiber or sugar alcohols from carbs to get the net carbs.

Finally, a keto dessert that isn’t bitter and doesn’t taste like pure eggs! Best recipe I have tried so far. All the other ones I had tried were extremely eggy and had no flavor. Thank you.

Sharon Ells-Jakiel says
Made this last night. This could become a problem. The absolute best cake in a mug!
Nicole says
OhMyGosh! I just made the vanilla option and baked it in the oven. It is so delicious. Mine did take 15-16 minutes but I started watching it closely at 10 minutes. This may have also been because I baked it in a round glass container and not a mug. I also used coconut flour as I was out of almond flour. This is going in my recipe book for sure.
