Black Forest Cake Directions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line two 9-inch round cake pans with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together almond flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until thoroughly combined.
- In a separate bowl, mix unsweetened almond milk, unsweetened applesauce, and granulated sweetener until smooth and well incorporated.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl of dry ingredients, stirring until just mixed. Avoid overmixing to maintain a light texture.
- Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely.
- Once cooled, place one cake layer on a serving plate. Spread a generous layer of cherry pie filling over the top. Carefully place the second cake layer on top of the filling.
- Decorate the top of the cake with light whipped topping, fresh cherries, and a sprinkle of unsweetened cocoa powder or chocolate shavings for an elegant finish.
- Slice and serve your Black Forest Cake with pride, savoring each delightful bite guilt-free.
