One-Minute Cinnamon Coffee Cake

July 11, 2019 By Vanessa Rae Romero

A few weeks back, Tom and I went out for brunch at an award-winning restaurant here in downtown Minneapolis.

One of the menu items we oohed and ahhed over was a gluten-free cinnamon coffee cake.

Oh my word, was it ever good.

I bet Tom that I could make my own version that was just as good AND eliminate the sugar and carbs.

So, I did.

Cinnamon Coffee Cake

Prep Time: 2 Minutes
Cook Time: 1 Minute
Yields: 1 Serving

A healthy alternative to cinnamon coffee cake.

Dry Ingredients

  • 1/4 c Blanched Almond Flour
  • 2 T Vanilla Protein Powder (I use this one)
  • 1 T Sugar-Free Sweetener (I use this one)
  • Pinch of Celtic Sea Salt
  • 1/2 t Aluminum-Free Baking Powder
  • 1/2 t Cinnamon

Wet Ingredients

  • 1/2 T Butter
  • 1 lg Egg
  • 2 T Water

Directions

  1. In a small bowl, mix together dry ingredients and set aside.
  2. To a 4-inch ramekin, add butter and melt in the microwave for 30 seconds.
  3. Rotate the ramekin to coat the sides with melted butter then add butter, egg, and water to dry ingredients.
  4. Mix until smooth.
  5. Pour batter into ramekin and microwave* for 45-50 seconds on high.
  6. Remove from microwave and sprinkle top with a bit more cinnamon and sweetener.
  7. Let cool and enjoy.

*Or bake at 350 degrees F for 18-20 minutes. In my experience, it does not rise as much when baked.

Recipe Notes

Recipe, as written, is gluten and sugar-free. Great for my low-carb and keto friends. If also dairy-free, experiment with vanilla pea protein instead of whey and replace butter with coconut oil. You want this to be slightly underdone for best texture.

Tonight I had a conversation with my dad about his experiences with racism. He told me a story about being afraid to hold my mom’s hand in public when they were newly married in 1969. When she died in December 2015, he was still holding her hand. 💜

HAPPY SUNDAY...I don’t know about you, but I’ve been feeling increasingly unsettled. When I ask God, what can I do to make a difference, what I’ve heard over and over, is to just keep showing up. So that’s what I do. You might not think you matter, but I promise you do!!! 💜
