Tips & Tricks (5)
- Microwave Precision 🕒Use 20-30 second intervals when microwaving to prevent overcooking and maintain the perfect gooey center. Check consistency between each interval for optimal lava cake texture.
- Flour Power 🥣Sift the almond flour and protein powder together to eliminate clumps and ensure a smooth, consistent batter that creates a silky texture in your lava cake.
- Sweetener Secret 🍯Dissolve monk fruit sugar completely in the wet ingredients to prevent granular texture and ensure even sweetness throughout the lava cake.
- Molten Magic 💧For the ultimate lava center, add an extra tablespoon of protein cookie butter in the middle of the batter just before final cooking to create a guaranteed oozy chocolate core.
- Cooling Technique 🧊Let the lava cake rest for 1-2 minutes after cooking to allow the center to stabilize slightly, creating the perfect balance between a firm exterior and a molten interior.
