ALMOND COCONUT SUGAR CAKE


This is a simple and easy recipe,but tastes awesome.

I have made this cake with almond flour,and a few teaspoons of white flour.

You could make this with pure almond flour too.

Coconut sugar was used for sweetness.

Coconut sugar considered to be low on calories( in comparison to the sugars we use )

naturally extracted from the sap of the coconut flower is being substituted for sweetness

nowadays.Though research is not proven fully ,it is said diabetics could opt for this sugar

( diabetics please do find out from your doctor).

Well,my try was really successful,as the cake tray was empty within minutes ,relieving

me of the hassle of transferring into a container.

So,do try it and send in your comments and suggestions
