Equipment

  • Convection oven

Ingredients

  • 1 cup cooked pumpkin (I like butternut squash)
  • 1/4 cup cooked apple (1 apple Medium size or 2 snack size)
  • 3 eggs (Large)
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup cottage cheese (or Greek yogurt)
  • 1/4 cup almond flour
  • 2 tbsp coconut flour
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 2 tbsp erythritol (or monk fruit)

For the chocolate swirl

  • 2 oz dark chocolate (85% or higher)
  • 1/2 tsp melted butter
  • 1 tbsp milk (dairy or plant-based)
  • 1 pinch erythritol (optional)

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease or line a 5-inch (12 cm) round baking pan.
  • In a food processor, blend pumpkin, apple, eggs, and vanilla until smooth.
  • Add cottage cheese and erythritol or stevia blend, process again.
  • Mix in almond flour, coconut flour, and baking powder until combined.
  • Pour batter into the baking pan. Drizzle chocolate sauce on top and swirl with a toothpick.
  • Bake for 45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  • Cool completely, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.

Prepare chocolate swirl

  • Melt chocolate, butter, and milk in the microwave (360W, 1 minute). Stir until smooth. Sweeten if desired.

Notes

Notes:
  • Dairy-free: use coconut or almond yogurt instead of cottage cheese.
  • For extra protein: replace half of the almond flour with protein powder.
  • Best served chilled; refrigeration enhances texture and flavor.
