How to make Keto Salted Egg Sponge Cake
-
Mix the cake batter
Separate the yolks and egg whites of 4 chicken eggs into 2 separate bowls.
Use a hand mixer to beat the egg whites with a little lemon juice until the egg whites form large bubbles like soap foam, then gradually add 2 tablespoons of monk fruit sweetener, beating until the egg whites are soft and fluffy. Lift the whisk to create peaks that bend downwards.
Tip: Adding lemon juice while beating the egg whites will make them fluffier faster. Additionally, you can completely use Cream of Tarta as a substitute.See details: How to beat egg whites
In the bowl with the egg yolks, add 113g of unsalted butter, 2 tablespoons of vanilla extract, 1/4 teaspoon of salt, 3 tablespoons of almond milk, 250g of almond flour, and 25g of baking powder. Beat the mixture at medium speed until the ingredients are well combined.
Gradually add the whipped egg whites into the bowl with the batter you just mixed. Use a spatula to fold gently until you have a uniform cake batter.

Pouring the cake batter
Pour a small amount of the cake batter into each cupcake paper mold so that the batter fills about 2/3 of the mold.
Do the same until all the ingredients are used up.

Baking the cake
Preheat the oven to 170 – 180 degrees Celsius for 10 minutes to stabilize the temperature. Then place the cupcake molds in the oven and bake for about 23 minutes.
Tip: To check if the cake is cooked, you can use a toothpick and poke it into the cake. If it comes out clean without any batter sticking to it, it means the cake is done!When the cake is cooked, take it out of the oven. Place half of a salted egg yolk (or one if you prefer) on each cake, add some shredded pork and melted cheese on top, and it’s ready.
Tip: You can also add fresh cheese on top of the cake for extra appeal! -
