Ingredients

1 cup blanched almond flour
3 tablespoons coconut flour
⅓ cup granulated sugar-free sweetener
1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
¼ teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
½ cup ricotta cheese
¼ cup unsalted butter melted
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
5 tablespoons sugar-free chocolate chips

Instructions

Preheat oven: Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C) and line two mini loaf pans with parchment paper.
Mix dry ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together almond flour, coconut flour, sweetener, baking powder, and salt.
Add wet ingredients: Stir in ricotta cheese, melted butter, beaten eggs, and vanilla until just combined.
Separate batter: Transfer about one-third of the batter into a separate bowl and mix in the cocoa powder.
Fold in chocolate chips: Add 2 tablespoons of chocolate chips to the chocolate batter and 3 tablespoons to the vanilla batter.
Layer the batters: Spread a layer of vanilla batter into each pan, then add a layer of chocolate batter. Repeat, finishing with a small amount of chocolate batter on top for a swirl effect.
Add topping: Sprinkle extra chocolate chips on top if desired.
Bake: Bake for 35–37 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Cool and serve: Let the cakes cool fully before slicing and serving.

Notes

Pan size: You can also bake this recipe in one 8x4-inch loaf pan; increase the baking time by about 10 minutes.

Sweetener: I use an erythritol/monk fruit blend.

Storage: Store at room temperature for up to 2 days or refrigerate for up to 1 week. You can also freeze individual slices for up to 2 months.

Serving idea: Delicious on its own or with a dollop of whipped cream and fresh berries.
