Sweet But Not Refined Chocolate Torte

December 30, 2011 by gracefulfitness 12 Comments

They say that the best way to get over one sweetie is to get into another…

…or something like that. 😉

I didn’t want to completely turn my back on my sweet tooth so last night I whipped up a batch of sugar-free tortes.  My sister-in-law gave me a beautiful and delicious almond flour torte on Monday, made by The Crazy Baker, and it served as the inspiration for my latest kitchen experiment.

Sweet But Not Refined Chocolate Torte

Gluten free, refined sugar free, dairy free, rich, and delicious

  • 1 banana
  • 3 eggs

Blend together in a food processor or blender

Add

  • 1/3 cup almond meal or flour
  • 2 tablespoons coconut flour
  • 2 tablespoons cocoa
  • pinch of stevia
  • pinch of cinnamon

Grease 7 muffin tins with butter or coconut oil and fill each cup about halfway with batter, smoothing out the top.

Bake in a 350* oven for 12 minutes.  Let cool before removing from cups.  Top with chocolate ganache!

I snacked on wheat crackers and cheese while I made these dairy free, wheat free treats. It’s all about variety in the diet. 😉

Not a fan of banana with chocolate?  I bet a half a cup of yogurt would work well in it’s place, you would but have to adjust the sweetness but adding more stevia or maybe a little honey.

Have a sweet and unrefined New Year!
