Step 1. Combine in a bowl all the dry ingredients – coconut flour, protein powder, cocoa powder, granulated sweetener and baking powder.

Step 2. Add to the dry ingredients 1 egg, 2 egg whites, Greek yogurt and milk of choice. Stir to combine, then fold in your blueberries.

Step 3.  Fold a round mini baking dish (12 cm or 4.7 inches diameter) with parchment paper or grease with little oil so that your blueberry chocolate cake does not stick to the dish. Transfer your keto cake batter to the baking dish and bake in hot oven for 20 to 25 minutes (mine took 23 minutes).

So quick and simple, in a small mixing bowl stir together Greek yogurt, cocoa powder and sweetener to taste. If your yogurt mixture is too thick, thin the protein glaze with little milk to consistency. Finally, glaze your blueberry chocolate cake for one after the dessert has cooled.

FAQ – Frequently asked questions

  • Which protein powder is best? For this keto blueberry chocolate cake I recommend using vegan protein powder, best if it is a chocolate flavor one (I used chocolate pea protein). As an alternative you can make this keto cake with casein or even whey protein powder. However, if you utilize whey protein powder, your blueberry chocolate cake will probably require less milk and may turn out slightly dry.
  • Can I replace protein powder? Yes, you can replace protein powder with almond flour or oat flour. If necessary, adjust the quantity of milk to consistency.
  • Can I replace egg whites? Yes, you can replace the 2 egg whites in this recipe with one whole egg.
  • Can I make this blueberry chocolate cake dairy-free? Yes, to make this keto blueberry chocolate cake gluten-free, replace Greek yogurt with a vegan firm yogurt of choice and use nondairy milk.
  • Can I make this mini keto cake ahead? Yes, bake, let cool and cover the cake with wrapping paper. At room temperature, your keto pastry will stay fresh for up to 3 days.
  • Can I make this blueberry chocolate cake for more servings? Yes, increase all ingredients proportionally to the number of servings you want to get. It goes without saying that you will need a larger baking dish.

    1. Hey Chris,
      indeed you can use almond flour, but you will need slightly more. About 35 grams.
      Kind regards,
