Instructions

Cake Instructions:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • Line a 9 inch cake pan with wax paper.
  • In medium bowl #1, mix the cocoa powder, almond flour, coconut flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt with a fork until well blended.
  • In medium bowl #2, mix the eggs, honey, maple syrup, vanilla, and coconut oil with a hand held electric mixer until well mixed. Add the mashed avocado and bananas and mix again until everything is well mixed.
  • Pour bowl #1 into bowl #2 and mix with a hand-held electrical mixer until everything is just blended.
  • Add the raspberries into the mixture and mix until the raspberries are mashed and mixed into the batter.
  • Fold in the chocolate chips.
  • Pour the batter into a 9 inch cake pan and cook for 40 minutes.
  • Remove the cake from the oven and let cool for a bit. You can also lift the wax paper up to move the cake onto a plate or wire rack to cool.

Frosting Instructions:

  • Put the Enjoy Life chocolate chips in a microwave safe bowl with 1/4 tsp of coconut oil. Heat for 30 second intervals in the microwave until the chocolate is melted. Set the bowl aside to cool.
  • Put the mashed avocado, cocoa powder, honey, maple syrup, and vanilla in a bowl and mix with a hand held electric mixer until smooth.
  • Add the raspberries and mix until the raspberries are mashed into the frosting.
  • Pour the cooled melted Enjoy Life chocolate into the frosting and mix until everything is well blended.
  • This amount should be enough to frost the cake.
  • Once the cake is cooled, frost the cake, eat, and enjoy!
  • Note: if you don't want to use baking powder, add an extra 1/4 tsp of baking soda and 1 Tbs apple cider to the recipe.
