*********
Single or small serving recipes are great for individuals living alone or those who are the only ones living low carb/keto in the family. They are also great for portion control or to satisfy any last-minute cravings without worrying about leftovers.

This recipe is based on my regular lemon olive oil cake. This method of cooking in the microwave for 1 1/2 to 2 minutes makes the texture of the cake so soft, fluffy, moist and delicious with a lemony taste. I think the texture is even better than the usual baked ones.

DRY INGREDIENTS
Almond flour = 40 g (5 tbsp)
Coconut flour = 10 g (1 1/4 tbsp)

Other flour options: –
1. Solely almond flour = 83 g (10 tbsp)
2. Solely coconut flour = 20 g (2 1/2 tbsp)

Baking powder = 4 g (1 tsp)
Baking soda = 1/4 tsp
Monk fruit = 20 g (1 1/2 tbsp) (This is mildly sweet so please adjust according to your preference)
Salt = 1/8 to 1/4 tsp
Lemon zest = 1/2 tbsp

WET INGREDIENTS
Egg = 1 large whole egg (58 g) (room temperature)
Extra Virgin Olive Oil = 60 ml (1/4 cup)
Fresh Lemon Juice = 15 ml (1 tbsp)
Vanilla extract = 1/4 tsp

DIRECTIONS
1. Add all the dry ingredients into a small bowl and mix to combine. Then add all the wet ingredients and whisk until well combined. The batter is thick and smooth.
2. In the video, I used a 5×5 inch glass baking dish, greased and lined with parchment paper. Alternatively, you can use a cup as shown in the video. The previous cup I used was quite big, so I switched to using 2 smaller cups this time for portion control. You can also use any suitable mug or ramekin.
3. Transfer the batter into the glass baking dish or cups. Spread evenly.
4. Microwave 1 item at a time for 1 1/2 to 2 minutes. It is best to microwave with a 20 to 30 second interval to avoid any overflow especially at the initial stage when the batter is more liquidly. Check doneness with a toothpick.
5. Once ready, remove the dish, parchment paper and slice into 4 servings.
6. You can enjoy this cake warm. It is so soft, fluffy, moist, refreshing and incredibly delicious. In fact, the texture is even better than the usual baked ones.
7. If you wish to use the traditional oven, you can bake them at 350F or 180C for about 15 minutes, but the texture will be different.

  2. I love everything lemon & this size keeps me from overeating. I appreciate the work you do to bring us great low carb treats. Many thanks Elsie πŸ‹πŸ’–

  3. I love this recipe, Elsie! You probably could use orange peel with orange juice, or would that be weird πŸ€”? Would you use avocado oil instead? What are your thoughts, Elsie? Thank you, again ❀

  4. I just made it! Lovely! I think it’s my favorite quick cake so far; I like the perfume-y taste of the extra virgin olive oil. πŸ™πŸΌπŸ’• (and I love lemon anything 😊)

  5. This is awesome! My favourite dessert used to be a Lemon Olive Oil cake by Meghan, Duchess of Sussex but I stopped making it when I switched to KETO so you have made my day with this! And just in time for my September birthday!

  6. Elsie, is the amount of oil correct? I tried making this today, and it turned out very oily. I even tried 26ml, and it turned out better, but still a bit oily. I use Wildly Organic coconut flour and allulose as my sweetener. Also, what is the wattage of your microwave, may I ask? I have a 1000-watt microwave.

  7. Hello Elsie! Thank you for sharing this recipe! So, I've been so addicted to your brownie shorcut method, it's been so good to eat it. I'm wondering if you ever have the time and, also if you want to, could you make a low calorie , high protein version of that? Thank you, and as always, keep up the incredible work, you're very talented! Much love πŸ€—
